Samsung launches 12Gbit DRAM
Compared to the 20nm-based 8Gbit LPDDR4, the 12Gbit version is more than 30 percent faster at transferring data at 4,266 Mbits per second (Mbps), and is twice as fast as DDR4 DRAM for PCs, while consuming 20 percent less energy.
The 12Gbit LPDDR4 enables 3Gbyte or 6Gbyte of mobile DRAM in a single package using two chips and four chips respectively.
Joo Sun Choi, executive vice president of memory sales and marketing at Samsung Electronics said that his company intends to work with customers to move mobile DRAM into applications beyond premium smartphones and tablets. These applications could include slim personal computers, digital appliances and automotive devices.
