Samsung Launches Industry’s Fastest 8.5Gbps LPDDR5X DRAM

Published

on


Samsung’s New LPDDR5X DRAM: Samsung has been the biggest tech giant of the past few decades. The company has a strong hold on the electronics industry too. Recently, Samsung launched LPDDR5X DRAM, having a data transfer speed of 8.5 Gbps. This latest LPDDR jumps over the company’s maximum speed, which was 7.5 Gbps previously. Samsung achieved this speed in March 2022.

This LPDDR5X DRAM is authenticated to use on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Mobile Platform. The demand for LPDDR5X DRAM has also seen a massive increase in the PC market. LPDDR DRAM’s high performance at low power consumption helps PC makers to manufacture smaller, lighter and more powerful laptops.

LPDDR memory chips are an important component for modern automated vehicles also. This helps to process large amounts of data generated by the vehicle’s autonomous driving features. Its low power characteristic also plays an important role in deducting power consumption levels in data centers and edge servers and results in reduced cost of ownership.

Daniel Lee, Executive Vice President of Samsung Electronics’s Memory Product Planning Team has stated “As LPDDR memory continues to broaden its usage beyond smartphones into AI and data center applications, strong collaboration between memory and SoC vendors is becoming all the more important. Samsung will continue to actively engage with innovators like Qualcomm Technologies to enhance ecosystem readiness for future LPDDR standards.”

Samsung Praises Google’s Circle to Search for AI-Powered Features. Samsung debuted this feature on its Galaxy S24 flagship series back in 2024, which is grabbing more publicity. 

Samsung introduced ‘Galaxy AI’, a bundle of AI-generated features on the Galaxy S24 series initially, and now it’s already started making them available to more Galaxy flagship devices from 2023 through the latest One UI 6.1 update. 

Samsung’s Galaxy AI includes various features, including Circle to Search, Live Translate, Transcript Assist, Call Assist, Note Assist, AI-powered editing tools, and many more. Among all of them, the Circle to Search feature is the one that is gaining the most popularity on the Galaxy S24 smartphone. 

The fact is that the Korean giants are not even responsible for their’most  popular’ Circle to Search feature, which is the most popular among all AI-powered ones since it is a feature with Google, which means that Google is responsible and deserves praise, and regarding this, Samsung stated that: 

“Circle to Search with Google revolutionized the way users search, helping it become the most widely used AI feature amongst Galaxy S24 users. It allows them to learn more about almost anything on their screens quickly with a simple gesture, without having to switch apps.”

Before Samsung, Google already introduced this Circle to Search feature on its Pixel 8 series and Pixel 7 series smartphones in a similar style as it is available on the Galaxy S24 series. 

The only fact is that Samsung hugely advertises this feature, whereas Google appears quite a bit into advertising this Circle to Search feature.

A new partnership is in town! Samsung’s SmartThings and Philips Hue are shaking hands to introduce a bundle of exclusive updates and more. 

This new collaboration will add an extra layer of upgrades to elevate home automation and enhance control of light sync. It will result in greater control of the Philips Hue Sync TV App through SmartThings

At CES 2024, SmartThings already introduced new features that will surely make the TV the hotspot for smart homes. Philips Hue, through this collaboration, allows users to control their light sync application directly from the SmartThings application effortlessly as well as flawlessly. 

The Philips Hue Sync TV App will permit the sync of lights along with what is on the TV. This leads to enhanced experiences such as watching movies and shows or playing games. Since Philips and SmartThings are at the same stage, that’s why one can easily control the Hue Sync application from the phone with the SmartThings app. Apart from this, it will also permit you to adjust the light brightness, switch between modes, or start or stop the light sync without even any interruption. 

Now SmartThing is setting up to expand the availability of the Philips Hue Sync TV application to more regions, which includes:

  • Brazil
  • Hong Kong
  • Poland
  • Czech Republic
  • Slovakia 

The true reason behind this collaboration with SmartThings is just to expand the availability of smart home technology to more regions around the world. 

Noticeably, Philips Hue also introduces a monthly subscription option for the Philips Hue Sync TV App, which costs 2.99 USD/EUR. Also, users who prefer a non-recurring plan can go with the existing one-time purchase option, which remains available at 129.99 USD/EUR. Someone who purchases a new 2024 Samsung TV will seamlessly use the Philips Hue Sync app to control their lights in sync with what’s on screen.

Samsung Ramps Up 3nm Chip Production to Compete with TSMC

Published

on


Samsung is eagerly trying to compete with the biggest chip manufacturer, TSMC. To do that, the company has increased the production of the 3nm chip. However, it is still not achieving the same yield rate as TSMC. 

According to a tipster, @Teck_Reve, Samsung’s initial yield rate was 10 to 20%, which has now increased by over threefold, but he didn’t mention the exact amount of production increase. 

If you don’t know about the yield rate, it is a measure of the usable chips manufactured at a facility. It is calculated as the percentage of the total number of chips produced. If the yield rate is high, the number of defective chips is low. Ultimstrly it mrsdutr the efficiency of the  chips production. 

The Korean giant has started making 3nm chips in 2022, but it has struggled to achieve the yield rate. It has transitioned from the FinFET transistor architecture to the more advanced GAA architecture, but Samsung hasn’t achieved the desired yield rate while at the same time the TSSMC, with the same 3nm fabrication manufacturing, has achieved the efficiency and has enjoyed the yield.

However, if the report is inaccurate, there are some positive signs that Samsung is trying to fill the gap between the efficiency of manufacturing. As per the tipster, the Korean giant is providing the 4nm chips, which employ the FinFET architecture. The power efficiency and logic area have increased by 20–30%. If this happens, the company will get a major advantage to edge the 3nm semiconductor market.

According to a recent report, Samsung has informed its customers about a rebranding of its 2nd-generation 3nm process. The company will call the 2nm process instead of the 2nd generation 3nm process, technically a 3 nanometer process, but the Korean firm is renaming it to 2nm. It is confusing that the company is taking this step, but the real 2nm chips will be available next year’s second quarter.
