Chinese memory maker ChangXin Memory Technologies has introduced its first LPDDR5 memory devices and two new products using the tech. The new DRAMs are the first LPDDR5 memory ICs produced by a Chinese company. They are aimed at inexpensive smartphones and other low-power devices, a key advance as the country looks to expand its chipmaking capabilities.
CXMT is mass-producing 12Gb LPDDR5 memory devices rated for a 6400 MT/s data transfer rate with on-die ECC, which is in line with the performance and features of standard LPDDR5 DRAMs made by bigger players, such as Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix. The company currently offers smartphone makers a 6 GB LPDDR5 DSC package and a 12 GB LPDDR5 package-on-package memory option.
