- Micron has bought a 300,000 square foot factory in Taiwan from Powerchip for $1.8 billion. (MSN)
Powerchip manufactures DRAM, but is much smaller than Micron or even Taiwanese competitor Nanya. Micron is valued at $400 billion - the largest pure-play memory company in the world. Nanya's market cap is now around $25 billion, and Powerchip is around a third of that.
The new site is expected to be producing DRAM in volume by the second half of next year.
