Samsung Unveils Groundbreaking 24Gb GDDR7 DRAM: Powering the Future of AI Computing

Samsung Electronics, a frontrunner in advanced memory technology, has revolutionized the graphics DRAM landscape with its industry-first 24-gigabit (Gb) GDDR7 DRAM. This groundbreaking innovation boasts not only the highest capacity in the market but also phenomenal speed, making it the perfect solution for next-generation applications.

The 24Gb GDDR7 surpasses expectations with its exceptional capacity and blazing-fast performance, exceeding 40Gbps. This translates to a significant leap forward in graphics DRAM technology, empowering a wider range of fields beyond traditional applications like gaming consoles, graphics cards, and autonomous vehicles. Data centers and AI workstations will benefit immensely from the high-performance memory solutions this new DRAM offers.

“Samsung continues to solidify its leadership position in the graphics DRAM market with this remarkable achievement,” said YongCheol Bae, Executive Vice President of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics. “Following the industry-first 16Gb GDDR7 launch last year, we remain committed to pioneering next-generation products that cater to the ever-evolving needs of the AI market.”

This technological marvel achieves its remarkable density by utilizing 5th-generation 10-nanometer (nm)-class DRAM, effectively increasing cell density by 50% within the same package size as its predecessor. But that’s not all – the 24Gb GDDR7 incorporates three-level Pulse-Amplitude Modulation (PAM3) signaling, propelling it to a groundbreaking speed of 40Gbps, a substantial 25% improvement over the previous version. This performance can even be further enhanced to 42.5Gbps depending on the environment.

Samsung doesn’t stop at raw power; the 24Gb GDDR7 prioritizes efficiency as well. By implementing innovative technologies previously used in mobile products, such as clock control management and dual VDD design, it significantly reduces unnecessary power consumption, resulting in a remarkable 30% improvement in power efficiency.

Furthermore, the 24Gb GDDR7 employs power gating design techniques to ensure operational stability even at high speeds, minimizing current leakage.

This revolutionary DRAM is poised to make waves in the AI computing industry. Samsung has already initiated validation processes with major GPU customers for integration into next-generation systems this year, paving the way for commercialization in early 2025.
