Samsung Electronics plans to adopt a chip-making technology pioneered by SK Hynix in an effort to catch up in the competitive race to produce high-end chips used in artificial intelligence. Samsung has fallen behind SK Hynix and Micron Technology in supplying latest high bandwidth memory (HBM) chips to AI chip leader Nvidia. Samsung's decision to stick with non-conductive film (NCF) chip-making technology has caused production issues, while SK Hynix's mass reflow molded underfill (MR-MUF) method has addressed these weaknesses. Samsung has now issued purchase orders for chipmaking equipment designed to handle the MR-MUF technique.
