Samsung starts mass production for memory chips for on-device AI

Aiming to meet rising demand for on-device AI, Samsung Electronics has begun mass production for the industry’s thinnest dynamic random access (DRAM) low-power memory chips.

Samsung said it is producing chisp in 12-nanometer (nm)-class, 12-gigabyte (GB) and 16GB LPDDR5X DRAM packages. The devices are as thin as a fingernail, and it’s an example of how AI is driving demand for new kinds of electronics.
