Samsung on the final assembly devoted to summing up the outcomes of the second quarter of this 12 months introduced that it’s growing 24-gigabit DDR5 reminiscence chips. In concept, it will enable the manufacturing of reminiscence modules as much as 768 GB for the server section.

“In response to inquiries from our cloud companions, we’re additionally growing 24 Gigabit DDR5 reminiscence chips,” a senior govt mentioned in a speech posted by SeekingAlpha.

Samsung introduced the event of 24-gigabit DDR5 chips – they’ll assist you to create reminiscence modules of 768 GB

Up to now, the corporate has demonstrated a 512 GB RDIMM reminiscence module consisting of 32 reminiscence chips of 16 GB every (every consists of eight layers of 16 GB). Utilizing 24Gb reminiscence as a part of an eight-layer (8-Hello) meeting, Samsung can develop a single reminiscence stack to 24GB and a complete 32-chip module to 768GB. On this case, a server system providing help for eight-channel reminiscence (two modules per channel) can theoretically be geared up with over 12 TB of DDR5 RAM. For comparability, the declared capabilities of the present era of Intel Xeon Scalable (Ice Lake-SP) processors solely supply set up of as much as 6 TB of reminiscence.

Moreover, for the server section, Samsung might start manufacturing of 96, 192 or 384 GB reminiscence modules. For the patron RAM market, utilizing 24 Gigabit chips as an alternative of 16 Gigabit chips may imply 50% extra reminiscence modules. On this case, it will likely be attainable to search out 24 and 48 GB DDR5 reminiscence modules on sale. Nevertheless, the corporate provides that such options are unlikely to seem within the close to future; because the focus is now on the manufacturing of 16-gigabit DRAM chips. Nevertheless, we are going to uncover extra quickly.

Samsung’s working revenue breaks two-year file due to excessive reminiscence costs

For producers of reminiscence chips, the second quarter of this 12 months turned out to be a good interval; since excessive demand for the sort of product was with excessive costs. Samsung Electronics was no exception; with the corporate’s working revenue surging 54% to $ 10.95 billion, hitting a excessive since Q3 2018. The corporate expects demand for smartphones to get better to 2019 ranges.

As famous by Reuters, even the contract division of Samsung Foundry carried out effectively, growing its income to a file stage. Total, working revenue from the semiconductor enterprise elevated 28% YoY. It ought to be borne in thoughts that in February; Samsung was compelled to cease operations in Texas because of climate anomalies; and this incident affected the corporate’s actions within the following months.
