Skymedi makes HTC Nokia supply chain foray

BANGALORE, INDIA: Taiwan-based memory control integrated circuits manufacturer Skymedi is said to have made an aggressive foray into the supply chains of High Tech Computer (HTC), Nokia and Garmin with its eMMC products.

According to a Digitimes report, though Skymedi preferred to stay put when asked for comments on the news and the status of the customers, the company admitted that it was partnering NAND flash vendors to co-develop managed-NAND solutions based on the eMMC specification for handsets and outdoor navigators.

It is believed that the adoption of eMMC solutions will expand to cover PC applications in the future for the company. Skymedi has reportedly said that NAND-flash use in multi-chip packages for mobile handsets are most likely to zomm over 85 per cent by year 2010.

Digitimes further said that Skymedi rival Phison Electronics had recently announced its collaboration with NAND flash chipmakers to jointly develop controllers for NAND solutions based on the newly-released JEDEC eMMC 4.4 industry specification, with products available by the end of 2009.
