Samsung announced today that it has begun production of 2.4Gbps pin-width HBM2 memory with 8GB of packaging capacity, of which HBM is shorthand for High Bandwidth Memory high-bandwidth memory chips.
This time, Samsung named the product Aquabolt (formerly Flarebolt), the industry's fastest DRAM and targeted at supercomputers, artificial intelligence and graphics cards.
Technical parameters, Samsung revealed a voltage drop of 1.2V with a total bandwidth of 307GB / s, which is 9.6 times faster than the 8GB GDDR5 chip.
One of the single-chip process, 8 8Gb vertical package, the use of 5000 TSV,
Simple calculation, If it is composed of 4 32GB HBM2, then the data transfer per second will be able to reach 1.2TB.
Earlier, Samsung and SK hynix provided HBM2 program pin bandwidth is generally 1 ~ 2Gbps.Samsung said they are confident that the HBM2 market share soared to 3 times, more than 50%.
