Elpida begins sample shipments of industry’s smallest 2-Gigabit DDR3 SDRAM

Elpida today announced that it had begun sample shipments of its new 2-gigabit DDR3 SDRAM (product names: EDJ2116DEBG and EDJ2108DEBG) geared for use in consumer electrical appliances. The new SDRAM is the industry’s smallest 2-gigabit DDR3 that supports an x16-bit I/O interface. The new 2-gigabit DDR3 SDRAM is well suited to consumer electrical appliances.
It meets the high-speed DDR3-1600 (1600Mbps) standard likely to become the mainstream memory speed standard in 2011, uses energy-efficient 1.35V for the DDR3L-1333 memory speed and is compliant with DDR3-Plus (seamless BL4 access) for upgrading the performance of consumer electrical appliances.
Also compared with Elpida’s existing x16-bit I/O products, the new SDRAM uses 30% less electricity.
The Elpida 2-Gigabit DDR3 SDRAM will find its way into digital TV, BD players, BD recorders, set top boxes, tablet PCs, etc. in 2011.
