Alliance Semiconductor Sees Lower Revenues

Alliance Semiconductor

(ALSC)

said Thursday its third-quarter revenue would be flat or up 2% from the second quarter, rather than 20% higher as previously projected.

The company blamed the shortfall on lower DRAM sales in Asia and yield problems with SRAM products.

Two analysts surveyed by
