Hynix Semiconductor Inc. (HSI) , is the world’s top tier memory semiconductor announce that they had developed 2Gb(Gigabit) DDR4 DRAM for notebook.
DDR4 DRAM is a next generation memory product which consumes less electronic power while it transfers data as twice as faster than the existing DDR3 DRAM. The device works at the industry’s fastest speed of 2400Mbps(Megabits per second), which is also 80% faster than DDR3 1333Mbps product. The Module product operates at such a low voltage of 1.2V and processes up to 19.2GB(Gigabytes) of data per second with a 64-bit I/O. DDR3 has a roadmap that stretches up to 2133 MHz, while DDR4 will operate at 2133 MHz up to massive 4266 MHz.
According to the press release Hynix plans to start volume production of this high performance DDR4 product in the second half of 2012 but us hungry enthusiasts will have to wait until 2013/2014 before AMD and Intel implement DDR4 support in its processors and according to iSuppli DDR4 will make up 5% in 2013 to over 50% in 2015 and become a mainstream in the market.
