Samsung Electronics, the world leader in advanced memory technology, announced its latest LPDDR5X DRAM with the industry’s fastest speed of 8.5 gigabits per second (Gbps) was validated for use on Snapdragon mobile platforms. By optimizing a high-speed signal environment between application processor and memory, Samsung has surpassed the previous maximum speed of 7.5Gbps achieved in March, reaffirming its leadership in the memory market.
LPDDR5X DRAM is also being used in laptops, high-performance computing devices, servers, and automobiles. Samsung has seen a robust growth of LPDDR5X DRAM chips in the automotive sector as more autonomous cars are capturing and processing a lot of data from sensors. In the high-performance computing space, LPDDR DRAM can help brands reduce power consumption, resulting in a significantly lower cost of ownership.
LPDDR DRAM has seen especially high demand from the PC market, where its ability to combine high performance and low-power consumption in a small form factor is helping PC makers build smaller, lighter and more powerful laptops.
