| AMD, Qualcomm to use SOCAMM for AI products |
1/30/2026 |
|
Advanced Micro Devices and Qualcomm plan to use small outline compression attached memory modules in their AI products, following Nvidia's lead. SOCAMM, based on low-power double data rate dynamic random-access memory, is upgradable and works alongside high-bandwidth memory to handle memory-bound tasks. AMD and Qualcomm are also exploring a different approach to integrating SOCAMM to improve power control and reduce motherboard complexity.
