Samsung starts mass production of 128GB memory and 2GB LPDDR3 mobile RAM

Samsung announced today that its 128GB eMMC memory chips and 2GB LPDDR3 RAM for mobile devices have entered mass production.

At the Samsung Mobile Solutions Forum 2012 in Taiwan today, Sammy spilled some interesting details about its upcoming memory chips.

The new DRAM is built using the 30nm manufacturing process and is the first 2GB low power double-data-rate 3 (LPDDR3) RAM to hit mass production. It can achieve data transfer speeds of up to 200MB/s per pin, making it 50 percent faster than the previous generation LPDDR2 RAM.

The new 128GB eMMC memory chips are quite fast as well with transfer speeds of up to 140MB/s. It’s manufactured on a 20nm process and uses NAND with a toggle DDR2 interface.

Samsung hasn’t given any estimates when we can expect those chips in mobile devices, but having just entered in mass production, I’d say early 2013 is a safe bet.

You forgot the bit were Apple will order the parts for their next 5s and then sue Samsung!

Corning’s Gorilla Glass has become synonymous with scratch-resistance for mobile devices (both phones and tablets), so we’re excited to see the third iteration of the product. Corning will showcase it at CES and its president will give a talk about the future of specialized glass for the video and gaming industry.

Gorilla Glass 3 promises a 3x increase in scratch resistance and fewer visible scratches. When GG3 does get scratched, Corning says its retained strength will be 50% better than that of the predecessors.

This is thanks to something called Native Damage Resistance, which will also reduce the propagation of flaws.

Corning’s president will talk about how specialized glass will impact “hi-res, 3D, HD video, Internet-connected TVs, conformable displays, tablets and viral apps”. Gorilla Glass is already used on phones, tablets and TVs and Lotus Glass is flexible (probably what he means by “conformable displays”), but how glass will affect viral apps is beyond me.

"Corning plans to introduce two new products at CES 2013: Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3, a new glass composition with durability enhancements; and Optical Cables by Corning, fiber-based, device-to-device connectivity solutions that significantly extend the data transmission range past the limits of copper-based cables. Full product details will be included in announcements planned for Monday, Jan. 7."
