Samsung has announced that it has started mass producing industry’s first 10-nanometer class 8-gigabit DDR4 DRAM chips and modules. The company started producing these chips in February, and it has already shipped them to some clients. The company will provide DDR4 modules in capacities ranging from 4GB for notebooks to 128GB for enterprise servers.
Samsung claims that these chips can transfer data at a pace of 3,200Mbps, which will benefit enterprise businesses with high-end servers. These chips are said to be capable of processing data 30 percent faster while consuming 20 percent lower power when compared to 20-nanometer class DDR4 DRAM chips. The South Korean chip giant didn’t reveal the exact size, but it could be 18-nanometer.
Samsung is currently the world’s largest memory chip manufacturer with a market share of 46.4 percent. The company became the first among its rivals to mass-produce and release 18-nanometer DDR4 DRAM chips. It was reported last week by Korean media that company has started mass producing 18nm DRAM chips. Its rivals SK Hynix and Micron are yet to bring a similar product to the market.
The company said that it will unveil a similar DRAM chip for mobile devices sometime later this year. The company’s high-end smartphone offering, either the Galaxy Note 6 or the Galaxy S8, could be the first smartphone to be equipped with this new DRAM chip.
