SK Hynix: 128-GigaByte DDR4 Module
SK Hynix, one of the leading designers and manufacturers of RAM, has officially announced the completion of the project to build a 128-gigabyte DDR4 module for server systems.
As to compare to the pervious ran 64-GB, they have uses vertical connection between the silicon layers within a single chip (Through Silicon Via, TSV), the capacity of each chip is 32 gigabit (four layers of 8 Gbps), their number – 32 units. Memory manufactured on 20-nanometer process technology.
This new Ram operates on the effective frequency of 2133 MHz at super low voltage of 1.2 V, more modest than existing DDR3 (1.35-1.5 B). Deliveries of 64 GB and 128 GB DDR4 memory will be start from the first half of 2015, SK Hynix predicts that DDR4 standard relatively quickly replace DDR3: next year it will be widely circulated, and a year later becomes primary.
