Hynix today announced that it has developed the world’s first 2Gb Low Power DDR2 DRAM for mobile applications using 40nm class process technology. This product works at 1,066 Mbps, which is the fastest speed among the current mobile DRAM solutions and provides a high density mobile DRAM solution in MCP (Multi Chip Package) or PoP (Package on Package) types. The device operates at such a low voltage of 1.2V and processes up to 4.26GB of data per second with a 32-bit I/O, providing high bandwidth. The firm further claims that it consumes 50% less power than existing mobile memory solution’s case.

The product meets JEDEC standards and is designed for the use in the next generation Smartphone, Smartbook and Tablet PC applications.

Hynix plans to start volume production of this product in the first half of this year in order to satisfy the increasing demand on high density mobile DRAMs for high performance mobile applications.
