Hoover's coverage by Nancy Daniels

Overview

Spansion favors flash expansion. The company was formed as a joint venture between Advanced Micro Devices and Fujitsu to make and market flash memory devices. The two chip heavyweights created the company as an outgrowth of their decade-long collaboration in nonvolatile memory. Flash memory is used in a wide variety of electronic devices, including wireless phones, networking equipment, and automotive subsystems. Spansion also provides hardware development tools and production manufacturing support. The unprofitable company is taking a number of cost-cutting measures to improve its results. Spansion emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2010.
