South Korean electronics giant Samsung has introduced a prototype DDR3 DRAM memory module, which will be twice as fast as the current DDR2 architecture.
DRAM is the type of memory used in personal computers, notebooks and servers. Samsung says the new DDR3 chips should be available during 2006. Besides speed, another exciting development of DDR3 is it uses less power to perform the same tasks as the DDR2 architecture. This can be extremely beneficial to notebook users, who are reliant on longer-lasting batteries.
According to PC Advisor
DDR3 (double data rate 3) DRAM (dynamic random access memory), can process data at up to 1.06Gbps (gigabits per second) and has a capacity of 512Mbits (megabits). Samsung will begin mass producing chips with speeds of 800Mbps (megabits per second) to 1.06Gbps in early 2006, said a company spokeswoman.
