Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. the world leader in advanced memory technology today announced that it has begun sampling the industrys first 16-gigabit Gb Graphics Double Data Rate 6 GDDR6 DRAM featuring 24-gigabit-per-second Gbps processing speeds. Built on Samsungs third-generation 10-nanometer-class 1z process using extreme ultraviolet EUV technology the new memory is designed to significantly advance the graphics performance for next-generation graphics cards Video Graphics Arrays laptops and game consoles as well as artificial intelligence-based applications and high-performance computing HPC systems.The explosion of data now being driven by AI and the metaverse is pushing the need for greater graphics capabilities that can process massive data sets simultaneously at extremely high speeds said Daniel Lee executive vice president of the Memory Product Planning Team at Samsung Electronics. With our industry-first 24Gbps GDDR6 now sampling we look forward to validating the graphics DRAM on next-generation GPU platforms to bring it to market in time to meet an onslaught of new demand.Engineered with an innovative circuit design and a highly advanced insulating material High-K Metal Gate HKMG that minimizes current leakage Samsungs 24Gbps GDDR6 will deliver 30 faster speeds compared to the previous 18Gbps product. When integrated into a premium graphics card the GDDR6 DRAM can transfer up to 1.1-terabytes TB of data or about 275 Full HD movies in just one second.Designed to be fully compliant with JEDEC specifications Samsungs GDDR6 DRAM will be compatible across all GPU designs facilitating broad market adoption in a wide array of graphics solutions.Samsungs new GDDR6 lineup will also feature low-power options that help extend the battery life of laptops. Utilizing dynamic voltage switching DVS technology which adjusts the operating voltage depending on performance requirements Samsung will provide 20Gbps and 16Gbps versions with approximately 20 higher power efficiency at 1.1V compared to the 1.35V GDDR6 industry standard.Graphics DRAM is increasingly being sought for use beyond PCs laptops and game consoles extending into other graphics-intensive applications like HPC autonomous driving and electric cars. Addressing these emerging markets Samsungs GDDR6 will enable seamless 4K and 8K video playback while supporting demanding AI accelerator workloads.Samsung continues to lead the graphics DRAM market globally and forecasts that the high-performance graphics portion will see double-digit growth annually in the coming years.
