Samsung Electronics has announced that it has started shipping first third-gen 10nm-class (1z) EUV-based 16Gb LPDDR5 DRAM for next-gen smartphones.
Mass production of the industry’s first 16-gigabit (Gb) LPDDR5 mobile DRAM, using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) technology has already started in Samsung’s second production line in Pyeongtaek, Korea.
The LPDDR5 DRAM is built on Samsung’s third-generation 10nm-class (1z) process. It boasts speeds of 6,400 Mb/s, which is about 16% faster than the 12Gb LPDDR5 (5,500Mb/s) found in most of today’s flagship mobile devices. When made into a 16GB package, the LPDDR5 can transfer about 10 5GB-sized full-HD movies, or 51.2GB of data, in one second.
Samsung says that the LPDDR5 package is 30% thinner than its predecessor, enabling 5G and multi-camera smartphones as well as foldable devices to pack more functionality in slimmer designs. The 16Gb LPDDR5 can build a 16GB package with only eight chips, whereas its 1y-based predecessor requires 12 chips (eight 12Gb chips and four 8Gb chips) to provide the same capacity.
Samsung says that it plans to strengthen its presence in the flagship mobile device market throughout 2021 by delivering the first 1z-based 16GB LPDDR5 package to global smartphone makers.
