Samsung’s first 16GB LPDDR5X memory chips promise to target 5G and AI applications.
Samsung has unveiled its next-generation RAM technology, which the company says will power everything from your next smartphone to the mcuh-heralded metaverse. The new 14-nanometer based 16GB Low Power Double Data Rate 5X (LPDDR5X) DRAM, is claimed as an industry-first, and is also expected to help in high-speed data service applications including 5G and artificial intelligence (AI). Many mobile phones currently use LPDDR5 memory, but Samsung says the new LPDDR5X DRAM can process data at up to 8.5 Gbps (around 1.3 times faster) while consuming 20% less power than the existing memory, meaning better battery life all round.
