Nanya Technology has announced revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009 increased 31% sequentially to NT$8.09 billion (US$247 million), with the net loss narrowing to NT$6.55 billion compared to losses of NT$10.51 billion in the prior quarter and NT$7.29 billion a year ago.

Thanks to improved DRAM prices, Nanya's ASPs rose by 31% sequentially, according to the company. It believes that the DRAM market is recovering from the bottom seen in the first quarter.

Nanya started migrating to 68nm stack for its DDR3 chips in the second quarter, said the company, noting that it is on track to kick off pilot run for 2Gb DDR3 on 50nm later in the third quarter. Nanya expects to complete the transition to the next-generation process technology during the second half of 2009, achieving a total capacity of 36,000 wafer starts per month.

Nanya said DDR3 currently accounts for 20% (15,000 wafer starts per month) of Nanya and Inotera Memories' combined production, and is expected to exceed 30% (20,000 per month) in fourth-quarter 2009 and further grow to surpass the 50% mark in the first half of 2010
