Samsung Began Making Highest Density DRAM

Samsung announced today that has started “the industry’s first production of four gigabit (Gb), low power double-data-rate 2 (LPDDR2) DRAM using 30 nanometer (nm) class* technology earlier this month.” This new, higher density, faster DRAM will improve power consumption on mobile devices like tablets and smartphones, while also making them thinner and lighter. The new 4Gb LPDDR2 DRAM operates at a data-transmission speed of 1,066Mbps, while today’s DDRAM runs between 333Mbps and 400MBps. More information can be read here.
