Samsung has recently developed a new generation of low-power LPDDR6 memory for mobile device applications, using a 12-nanometer process technology and a module data rate of up to 10.7Gbps. Samsung engineers increased the number of input/output channels and introduced dynamic power adjustment technology so that the memory can instantly adjust energy consumption according to the workload.
In addition, Samsung has integrated powerful security features into the memory system to ensure data integrity for various applications. It is worth mentioning that Samsung’s latest optimized LPDDR5X also achieves a 10.7Gbps rate, which has also become the starting standard for the new generation of LPDDR6.
Just like in the transition process from DDR4 to DDR5, the final configuration of the previous generation product is often similar to the performance of the first generation of the new standard. Samsung said that the energy efficiency of LPDDR6 is 21% higher than that of LPDDR5X. When achieving the same bandwidth and speed, the energy consumption of the device is reduced to one-fifth.
Samsung expects that LPDDR6 can achieve higher speeds in the future, up to 14Gbps, surpassing the existing overclocked version of the LPDDR5X chip. At the CES show early next year, Samsung will demonstrate terminal equipment equipped with new memory and release technical details.
