Industry sources say SK Hynix is rapidly scaling capacity for its sixth‑generation 10nm‑class DRAM 1c nm process. 1c is being accelerated because it will serve as the core for stacked HBM and next‑generation high‑bandwidth memory. Sources estimate 1c market share rose from about 10% in Q1 to roughly 13% in Q2, and expect it to reach about 24% in Q3, 34% in Q4 and roughly 35% in Q1 2027—surpassing 1b (around 33%) to become the company’s mainstream node.
