Samsung Starts Making Denser Mobile DRAM
InformationWeek: The new smaller and faster DRAM should allow mobile device makers to create thinner and lighter products.
"Samsung said Thursday that its 4 Gb, low power double-data-rate 2 (LPDDR2) DRAM is available to device manufacturers. DRAM is the system memory used in running the device's operating system and applications."
"Samsung has managed to boost speed of its DRAM, while reducing size and energy use, by shrinking the size of the circuitry to 30 nanometers from 40 nm in the older technology. The latest product has double the memory and data transmission speed. The latter has been bumped to 1 Gb per second."
