New Brief: Samsung Launches Third-Generation Mobile DRAM Memory LPDDR3

Samsung Electronics continues to actively improve its solutions for next-generation mobile devices. A few days ago it became known that the company began mass production of the first in the industry third-generation, two-gigabyte memory with low power consumption and double data transfer rate (LPDDR3). When creating it, a 30-nanometer process technology was used. On September 18, a new solution was demonstrated at the Samsung Mobile Solution Forum.



Samsung began mass production of today's most advanced DRAM mobile chips only ten months after the first 30 nm LPDDR2 memory samples of 2 GB were introduced in October 2011. New two-gigabyte LPDDR3 are packed into one compact case and use four LPDDR3 chips put together. The new solution will be very useful for fast processors, high-resolution displays and 3D graphics in tablets and new-generation smartphones.

The new mobile DRAM can transfer data at speeds up to 1600 megabits per second per contact, which is about 50% faster than the previous generation LPDDR2 DRAM. The total bandwidth of the new memory is 12.8 gigabits per second, which allows you to play FullHD video on smartphones and tablets in real time, and on screens more than four inches.
