Winbond Electronics saw revenues grow 0.5% sequentially to NT$2.59 billion (US$86 million) in November 2010, despite DRAM price drops as well as seasonality. The results also reflected the company's successful product mix strategy.

Winbond has lowered its proportion of standard DRAM sales to less than 5% while giving more emphasis to niche-market DRAM and NOR flash products.

Winbond said sales of its NOR and mobile RAM chips outperformed those generated from the GDDR and specialty DRAM segments in November, as prices for the former two products were under less downward pressure.

Winbond's revenues from January through November amounted to NT$29.28 billion, up 68.9% compared to the same period of 2009.

Including sales generated by logic IC subsidiary Nuvoton Technology, Winbond registered NT$3.17 billion in consolidated revenues in November. The figure showed growth of 0.3% on month and 14.3% on year.

In other news, Winbond began pilot runs for its in-house developed 46nm DRAM technology in November. Mass production is slated to begin in 2011.
