Samsung Electronics has announced that they have started mass producing 6Gb LP-DDR3 (Low Power Double Data Rate) RAM chips for mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. These RAM modules would be fabricated using 20nm process and would have a per-pin data transfer rate of 2,133 Mb/s. When four 6Gb chips are stacked together for a 3GB LP-DDR3 module, it would result in a 20 percent smaller package. It would also provide a performance improvement of up to 30 percent and 10 lower energy consumption when compared to current generation 3GB RAM packages with 6Gb LP-DDR3 chips.
