SK hynix is a Korean company with more than 30 years of experience in semiconductor manufacturing. It is the world's leading supplier of dynamic memory chips ("DRAM"), flash memory chips ("NAND flash") and CMOS image sensors ("CIS"). Recipients of the manufacturer's solutions are customers in almost all industries, from every continent. SK hynix's shares are listed on the Korean Stock Exchange, and Global Depository's shares are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. The company has 4 manufacturing plants in Korea and China, 4 R&D centers and 10 sales offices around the world. This makes the manufacturer's reach global. Building on its existing technological capabilities, the company is making continuous efforts in research and development. SK hynix invests in implementing cutting-edge technologies and is committed to maintaining the highest quality of its competitively priced products.
SK hynix was founded in 1983 as Hyundai Electronics. Going through numerous changes and crises, it has transformed into a leading global semiconductor manufacturer. In 2018, SK hynix developed the world's first 96-layer 4D NAND flash memory based on Charge Trap Flash (CTF), followed by 128-layer 4D NAND flash memory in 2019. In 2020, the company intends to acquire Intel's NAND memory and storage systems business, which includes manufacturing related to NAND SSDs, NAND components and control chips. Intel has industry-leading NAND SSD and quad-cell (QLC) NAND flash technology. SK hynix aims to increase the competitiveness of its solutions built on NAND flash. As one of the world's leading semiconductor companies, it is constantly striving to develop a complete flash memory ecosystem, which is a huge benefit to SK hynix partners and customers.
In today's digital world, semiconductors are the critical foundation and driving force of the IT industry. Semiconductors are more than just components. The smooth operation of many IT devices depends on their performance. The company is currently working on next-generation memory technologies (beyond DRAM and NAND flash), such as PCRAM, STT-MRAM and ReRAM. Continuously looking ahead and creating new solutions will enable the manufacturer to achieve and maintain its position as a leader in the IT market in the future.
