元器件交易网讯5月30日消息，据外媒报道，SK海力士今日表示，它已经签署协议，接管美国闪存阵列供应商ViolinMemory扩展卡部门，但并未透露交易价格。

SK海力士计划在六月完成交易，并吸纳该部门在加利福利亚圣克拉拉的资产、人员和专利。

该部门以PCIExpress和PCIe而闻名，高速扩展卡版本通过一个外围设备连接电脑。SK海力士此举是为了加强其在NAND闪存解决方案的竞争力。

早些时候，SK海力士收购LAMD公司，它是世界数据存储控制器技术的领导者，后更名为SK海力士内存解决方案。

去年，SK海力士在台湾SK海力士闪存解决方案有限公司建立了研发中心。

SK hynix Inc., a leading South Korean chipmaker, said Friday it has signed a deal to take over the expansion card division of U.S. firm Violin Memory Inc. It did not reveal the value of the deal.

The South Korean chipmaker plans to finalize the deal at the end of June, absorbing assets, personnel and patents of the division of the company based in Santa Clara, California, it said.

Known as PCI Express or PCIe, the high-speed expansion card format connects a computer with its attached peripherals. The takeover is viewed as an effort by the South Korean company to strengthen its competitiveness in NAND flash solutions.

Earlier, SK hynix acquired Link_A_Media Devices Corp. (LAMD), a world leader in data storage controller technology in June 2012, which was renamed SK hynix Memory Solutions.

Last year, the chipmaker established a research and development center, SK hynix Flash Solutions Taiwan Ltd., in Taiwan
