As mobile phone makers pack more flash memory into the handsets, the price of the memory is likely to go up after a 2 years downward trend, an Intel executive said.
As they add functions such as Internet access and cameras to their handsets, mobile phone makers are using more flash memory. This trend will bring flash supply and demand back into balance, the executive said during a conference last week.
Intel sees the convergence of communications and computing as the next engine of IT industry growth, he continued. Intel is shifting its flash memory production from a 0.18-micron manufacturing process to a 0.13-micron process, which allows it to produce more memory in a given amount of wafer.
