Rambus Inc announced a new mobile memory initiative which offers high speed memory architectures using low-power technologies. The phone manufacture is achieving data rates of 4.3 Gbps while offering power efficiency. The DRAM specializes in media-rich applications for smartphones.
“As consumer expectations grow for more media-rich applications on their mobile devices, new memory solutions will be needed to keep pace with the rapidly increasing bandwidth requirements,” Martin Scott, senior vice president of Research and Technology Development at Rambus.
Memory for mobile phones demand further breakthrough technologies, according to Martin Scott. The new DRAM can achieve data rates of 4.3 Gbps while offering power efficiency through FlexClocking. The FlexClocking architecture provides fast switching times between power-saving modes.
“With the breakthrough technologies developed through the Mobile Memory Initiative, Rambus enables a broad range of advanced mobile applications that will enrich the lives of consumers worldwide," Scott said.
Moreover, the new memory can serve 17 Gigabytes per second from a single smartphone DRAM device. In addition, the high speed memory incorporates key innovations such as FlexPhase and Microthreading technology. The new technologies could also serve as next-generation DRAM memory for mobile phones, netbooks, portable gaming, DVD and Blu-ray.
The memory is very interesting at data rates of 4.3 Gbps. This would be ideal for cell phones or other portable devices to achieve higher performance while using new power efficiency technologies. Multimedia capabilities on smartphones are getting larger for movies and cameras.
