Nanya Technology Corp chairman Wu Chia-chau poses for a photograph in Taipei on May 6. In addition, DRAM demand is being propelled by 5G infrastructure, 5G handsets, artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies, as those devices are equipped with much bigger memory, he added. As a result, Nanya Technology expects the DRAM industry is moving toward healthy development in the third and fourth quarters of this year. Nanya Technology last month said that it was not sure whether the price increases would be sustained in the final quarter of this year. To fuel growth, Nanya Technology is developing 10-nanometer technologies, with its second-generation 10-nanometer chips scheduled to start small-volume production soon, Wu said.
