Seoul (pte030/18.02.2005/14:45) - Korean electrical giant Samsung http://www.samsung.com has developed what it claims to be the world's first double data rate 3 (DDR3) DRAM device. As Tech News World http://www.technewsworld.com reports, the new 512 MB DDR3 DRAM, which can process data at a rate of 1,066 mbps will be available to customers early next year.
According to the company, DDR3 will become the standard for the next generation of ultra-fast, low-power-consuming memory chips used in notebook computers, desktops and servers. "Our success here with DDR3 continues our relentless push to bring the most advanced memory devices to the market at the fastest possible pace," said Samsung's senior vice president of memory sales and marketing Tom Quinn in a statement.
Samsung's prototype is the first memory chip to operate on just 1.5 volts, making it less of a drain on batteries. The operation speed to DDR3 doubles that of DDR2 and quadruples DDR, opening the platform to gigabit-rate data processing. It will also make use of highly advanced 80 nm production technology and include new functionality to permit its unprecedented processing speeds, such as self-driver calibration and data synchronisation.
