Analytical firm IC Insights presented visual compilation on the development of new technological processes schedules for major producers of computer DRAM and NAND-flash memory.
So, for now, all the companies were able to overpower the release NAND-flash chips with the norms of less than 20 nm and issue DRAM-memory with the rules of less than 30 nm. A similar situation, but on a new level, expected in 2.5-3 years, when the "average" rate of process technology for the production of NAND-memory will be reduced to 12-10 nm, and process technologies for the production of DRAM fall below 20 nm. It should be noted that 12-10 nm need not be taken literally.
This year, the production of NAND-flash mass was the release of 15-nm and 16-nm chips. Samsung Company, as we see, slow down a bit with the transition to the more subtle rules 2D-chips. In May of this year, Samsung has started mass production of 32-layer memory 3D V-NAND. Issue 24-layer chip, which was launched a year ago - in August 2013, was quite limited. Following Samsung's graphics are 3D NAND development company SK Hynix, Micron and Toshiba.
The so-called memory Hybrid Memory Cube, began producing Micron company , but in general - is the memory High Bandwidth Memory (HBM DRAM). Related Products :
