Samsung creates 40nm 4Gb DDR3 RAM
Samsung has grabbed another industry’s first title by developing a low-power 4Gb (gigabit) DDR3 RAM using 40nm class process technology. This memory promises to bring significant power savings and double the density as compared to 40nm-based 2Gb DDR3 developed last year. For instance, a 16GB module based on 4Gb saves up to 35 percent […]
