Samsung Elec. to release 20-nano LPDDR3 memory chips next year

[Samsung Elec. to release 20-nano LPDDR3 memory chips next year]
South Korea¡¯s Samsung Electronics developed the world¡¯s first 20-nano 4 Gb (gigabyte) DDR3 SDRAM chips, a memory semiconductor product used in computer servers. The new product will be released into the market next year. Samsung¡¯s newest low-power DDR3 chip (LPDDR3) features cutting-edge technology that allows a 3.5 times faster processing speed while cutting down on memory-related power usage by more than 80 percent.

This will lower overall server power consumption by a remarkable 44 percent. The new model features reduced line width to cut down on primary production costs for greater price competitiveness, while its design is based on low-power (LP) logics to reduce power consumption.

This latest LPDDR3 chip by Korea¡¯s leading tech pioneer targets the burgeoning data center server market, and has huge implications for Korea¡¯s IT sector. As a world leader in internet connectivity and speed, Korea has often been the target of numerous projects by world-renowned IT firms hoping to set up data centers in Korea.

The demand has been growing at a particularly rapid pace as of late with the advent of cloud computing services. Though this is great news for Korea¡¯s IT industry, most of these projects have been frustrated by concerns over its impact on Korea¡¯s power sector. Setting up numerous mass-storage computers would incur a huge toll on the nation¡¯s power system and disrupt the national supply of electricity, critics argue.

Samsung¡¯s green memory chip, however, will resolve this problem by drastically cutting down on power consumption. An upgrade from the existing 30-nano DDR3 to the new 20-nano green DDR3 chip will cut power usage by more than 15 percent. If upgrades are made to the solid straight drive (SSD) - a NAND flash chip drive that further accelerates processing speed - Samsung¡¯s newest products lines will drastically boost speed while greatly reducing power consumption.
