[Micron Technology: Capital expenditures in the first half of fiscal year 2027 will be approximately US$25 billion, and will be higher in the second half of the year] On October 1, Micron Technology expects capital expenditures in the first half of fiscal year 2027 to be approximately US$25 billion, and will be higher in the second half, and most of the increase will be used for new fabs (construction expenditures) rather than pure equipment purchases. Micron Technology CFO Mark Murphy explained that this is entirely because long orders provide sufficient demand visibility, and new greenfield factories require extremely long lead times.

[Micron Technology CEO: HBM demand growth will continue to outperform traditional DRAM until 2028] On October 1, Micron Technology Chairman and CEO Sanjay Mehrotra said in an earnings call that the structural gap in supply and demand growth rates has led to continued supply tensions. Even taking into account the industry’s new DRAM clean room space plan, under the strong demand trend (including customers’ continuous incremental requirements), we cannot see the inflection point when supply and demand can return to balance. Industry HBM demand growth will continue to outperform traditional DRAM until 2028. Sanjay Mehrotra revealed that most of Micron's HBM supply in 2027 has already signed agreements, and "prices have increased significantly year-on-year, which has narrowed the gross margin gap between (HBM) and traditional DRAM."

[Organization: Revised HBM price outlook for 2027, predicting ASP annual growth of 121%] On September 29, TrendForce’s latest research showed that demand for AI servers continues to expand, HBM and Conventional DRAM are still competing for limited advanced processes and wafer production capacity, and it will still take time to improve the yield and output of new generation products. It is estimated that memory supply will continue to be tight in 2027. While overall memory prices maintain an upward trend, suppliers have become more clear about HBM price increases in 2027. To reflect the continued tightness of overall supply, as well as the impact of the increasing proportion of high-priced HBM4 and the gradual ramp-up of HBM4e in the second half of 2027, TrendForce has revised its HBM price outlook for next year, estimating that the annual growth rate of Blended ASP will reach 121%.

[DeepSeek V4.1 Flash model officially released] On September 10th, DeepSeek officially released the DeepSeek V4.1 Flash model. It is the smallest model in the company’s new model structure series, featuring native multi-modal visual understanding. According to reports, the new generation model significantly reduces the size of the KV Cache. Compared with the previous generation model, the demand for HBM is reduced to 1/4 and the demand for SSD is reduced to 1/8. In Agent usage scenarios, the cost of cache hits often accounts for a relatively high proportion, and the compression of KV Cache greatly reduces the usage cost of Agent tasks.

[TSMC incorporates microchannel heat dissipation technology into its R&D blueprint] "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reported on the 2nd that Chen Yanming, director of TSMC's advanced packaging R&D department, said that microchannel heat dissipation technology sets up micro fluid channels in the chip or package structure to bring the coolant closer to the heat source, which helps improve heat transfer efficiency. TSMC has begun to introduce related technologies and plans to jointly develop with the packaging architecture. Chen Yanming also said that TSMC can integrate 24 HBMs and a CoWoS version with an area greater than 14 times the mask size is expected to be implemented in 2029. From 2024 to 2029, the number of AI computing transistors that can be integrated in a single CoWoS package will increase by more than 48 times, and the HBM bandwidth will increase by 34 times, highlighting the need for simultaneous upgrades in heat dissipation technology.

[Samsung is developing 8-layer HBM4E for NVIDIA] "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reported on the 31st that Samsung Electronics is cooperating with NVIDIA's requirements to develop an 8-layer seventh-generation high-bandwidth memory (HBM4E), which significantly reduces the stack height compared to the original planned 12-layer and 16-layer solutions. The speed specification proposed by NVIDIA is 17-18Gbps, which is higher than Samsung's initial HBM4E The 14.4Gbps sample is about 20% faster and is said to be used in NVHBM. (Seoul Economic Daily)

[SK Hynix is ​​considering handing over some HBM base die to Intel for production] "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reported on the 31st that SK Hynix is ​​considering handing over some HBM base die (Base Die) to Intel for production to reduce dependence on TSMC wafer foundry. This plan is expected to start with the seventh-generation HBM chip HBM4E. The analysis pointed out that for HBM4, TSMC’s basic die price is 3 to 4 times higher than the core chip produced by SK Hynix using its 10nm fifth-generation process. The cost burden is expected to increase further when transitioning to HBM4E. Given that HBM has a high proportion of long-term supply contracts (LTA), it is difficult for the company to immediately pass on the increase in foundry costs to product prices, so it needs to establish a multi-supplier system to improve its price negotiation capabilities.
