The plans for the production of products such as HBM second generation memory in one form or another have spoken AMD, NVIDIA and Intel. The first will use it in its graphical solutions generation Vega, it will start the expansion of the market in 2017. The second use already HBM2 memory in boosters Tesla computing, which are based on the GPU architecture GP100 with Pascal. Finally, Intel recently acquired FPGA-matrices Developer Altera ready to combine product family Stratix memory HBM2 10 type and 14-nm process technology.
Judging by the statement of a competing developer of programmable matrices, Xilinx company was able to equip the memory solutions such as programmable HBM2 family Virtex UltraScale +, which will be released on 16 nm technology by TSMC using FinFET-structures.
In the older configuration, according to the documentation team, these matrices are equipped with 8 GB of memory type HBM2, which provides up to 460 GB / s. These products can also work with memory type DDR4-2666. Application HBM2, according to representatives of the Xilinx, provides not only an increase in bandwidth, but also reduced specific energy consumption. Related Products :
