The company plans to provide the 321-high products to customers from the first half of next year.<\/p>\n<p>Stacking more than 300 layers came into reality as the company successfully adopted the &#8220;3 plugs&#8221;** process technology. Known for an excellent production efficiency, the process electrically connects three plugs through an optimized follow-up process after three times of plug processes are finished. For the process, SK hynix developed a low-stress*** material, while introducing the technology that automatically corrects alignments among the plugs.<\/p>\n<p>With the adoption of the same development platform from the 238-high NAND on the 321-high product, the company could also improve the productivity by 59%, compared with the previous generation, by minimizing any impacts from a process switch.<\/p>\n<div>\n<table border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" class=\"prnbcc\">\n<tbody readability=\"1.5\">\n<tr readability=\"4.5\">\n<td class=\"prngen2\" colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\" readability=\"6\">\n<p class=\"prnml4\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">** Plug: a vertical hole through layers of substrates aimed at creating cells at once<br \/>*** Low Stress: Preventing wafer warpage by changing the material into the plugs<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>The latest product comes with an improvement of 12% in data transfer speed and 13% in reading performance, compared with the previous generation.
