US memory maker Kingston Technology has written a cheque for $100 million to Hynix Semiconductor to buy DRAM chips and NAND flash in 2010.
According to Digitimes memory module makers are moving to rely less on Samsung Electronics, which tends to give priority to PC and system OEMs.
Hynix has recently begun NAND flash production using 32nm process technology and is shipping the new generation chips in small volume. Most of the stuff it makes is NAND flash using 41nm.
The $100 million is seen as a down payment on future chip purchases.
