Silicon Optronics (SOI) highlighted at its recent earnings call that ongoing price hikes and shortages in consumer memory remain unresolved, potentially tightening wafer foundry supply for the company’s lens module-related chips. The firm warned that since SoCs integrated with lenses require memory support, shortages in consumer memory could limit production volumes of mid- to low-end consumer applications due to high costs or material mismatches. Given that this segment is a core shipment market for SOI, the company said it will closely monitor developments.
