World’s largest computer memory chipmaker, Samsung Electronics announced its plan to begin mass production of its latest and fastest chip model from next month. The company will start manufacturing the 2 GB DDR3 Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) or chip for personal computers and other electronic devices such as mobile phones from next month.

The device is guaranteed to have 60% higher productivity than DDR2 devices as the 50nm class circuit technology has been used in making this. The 2GB DDR3 chips are claimed to be energy-efficient and supposedly reduces power consumption by at least 40% and therefore are very useful for next generation desktops and notebooks. Besides, the 2GB DDR3 chips reportedly enable use of up to 16GB RIMMs (registered in-line memory modules).

The 2Gb device supports a data rate of up to 1.3Gbps at 1.5v or 1.35V, which is almost 1.6-times faster as compared to 800Mb/sec for a 1Gb dual-die package or DDR2 DRAM model. Samsung reportedly proclaimed that the 50nm-class process, which is used to manufacture the 2Gb DDR3 is expected to become the company’s primary DRAM process technology next year.
