Texas Instruments (TXN) and Globalfoundries have won the bidding to acquire 300mm chip manufacturing equipment from Taiwan's Powerchip, sources tell Digitimes.

The sources note the sale could benefit the DRAM industry (and thus manufacturers such as Samsung and Micron) by further lowering capacity.
