🧠 Applicable Mental Models

Parkinson's Law (1× in SKH articles)

Example invocations: - Applied to memory: 'memory-Parkinson' dynamic where model size expands to fill available HBM capacity.

S-curve (1× in SKH articles)

Definition: The S-curve describes the pattern of adoption or performance improvement over time, starting slow, accelerating, then plateauing as limits are reached.

When to apply: Use to analyze technology adoption cycles or when a new technology may surpass an incumbent.

Example invocations: - Applied to HBM layer counts and hybrid bonding adoption: bump-based stacking approaches limits, and hybrid bonding is a next-gen technology with slow adoption.

⚠️ Top Risks (from articles)

  • competition (medium): SK Hynix's LPDDR6 shows worse power efficiency at lower pin speeds compared to Samsung, potentially losing market share in mobile.
  • competition (medium): SK Hynix's 321L V9 NAND density is comparable to Micron's 276L G9 but with higher cost due to 3 decks, risking market share loss.
  • geopolitical (high): Cannot ramp 1A DRAM at China fab due to EUV export license issues.
  • demand (medium): Mobile unit demand may be weaker than expected; SK Hynix expects mid-single digit growth but author is more bearish.
  • geopolitical (medium): Similar to Samsung; caught between US and China tensions.
