On 5 November (local time), at the 9th China International Import Expo in the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, Samsung Electronics, SK (including SK hynix) and Micron set up booths side by side, yna.co.kr reported. [1] None of the three announced new products. [1] Attention went to SOCAMM2, a server memory module for data centers that Nvidia developed together with memory makers. [1]

## SOCAMM2 and the memory makers' statements

Micron said its products consume less power and deliver better performance than competitors' products. [1] It described the Micron 9650 SSD as the industry's first PCIe 6th-generation SSD, announced last year. [1]

Samsung Electronics said SOCAMM2 is a standardized technology, so optimization matters more. [1] The company said it plans to release SOCAMM modules in a range of capacities, building on its server memory competitiveness and its experience in stable mass production of mobile DRAM. [1] Samsung also said that, as in the case of Nvidia Vera Rubin, it can supply HBM, SOCAMM2 and server SSDs to a single platform, and that it provides memory, foundry and packaging. [1]

Industry observers expect SOCAMM2, together with HBM, to become one of the two pillars of memory for data center computing and to grow into a market of several billion dollars within a few years. [1]

## Other exhibitors and trade figures

China's integrated circuit exports in September rose 136% from a year earlier, and imports rose 74.7%. [1] Exports to South Korea rose 68.2% and imports from South Korea rose 94.3%; a significant share of the imports is related to semiconductors. [1]

Intel and Qualcomm also had booths. Qualcomm showed a 6G terminal prototype for the first time; it is reportedly already being used by Chinese mobile carriers to test 6G technology. [1]

Hyundai Motor, exhibiting for the ninth consecutive time, displayed the Ioniq V electric model, an Ioniq concept car and a hydrogen truck. [1] Toyota built a large pavilion under the "With China" theme. [1]

About 210 South Korean companies took part. [1] The Korea pavilion organized by the Korea International Trade Association hosted more than 80 companies, about twice as many as a year earlier, showing cosmetics, food and household goods. [1]
