LPDDR5X: High Bandwidth, Power Efficient Performance For Mobile & Beyond
By Vinitha Seevaratnam - 08 Jun, 2023 - Comments: 0

Looking back over recent history in the memory landscape, we can clearly see a trend of new applications growing sufficiently large enough to command the creation of new memory technologies tailored to their specific needs. We saw this with the creation of GDDR for graphics and later HBM for AI/ML applications. Low-Power Double Data Rate (LPDDR) emerged as a specialized memory designed for mobi... » read more

GDDR6 Delivers The Performance For AI/ML Inference
By Frank Ferro - 15 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

AI/ML is evolving at a lightning pace. Not a week goes by right now without some new and exciting developments in the field, and applications like ChatGPT have brought generative AI capabilities firmly to the forefront of public attention. AI/ML is really two applications: training and inference. Each relies on memory performance, and each has a unique set of requirements that drive the choi... » read more

DDR5 Memory Enables Next-Generation Computing
By John Eble - 13 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Computing main memory transitions may only happen once a decade, but when they do, it is a very exciting time in the industry. When JEDEC announced the publication of the JESD79-5 DDR5 SDRAM standard in 2021, it signaled the beginning of the transition to DDR5 server and client dual-inline memory modules (Server RDIMMs, Client UDIMMs and SODIMMs). We are now firmly on this path of enabling the ... » read more

Enabling New Server Architectures With The CXL Interconnect
By Lou Ternullo - 09 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

The ever-growing demand for higher performance compute is motivating the exploration of new compute offload architectures for the data center. Artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) are just one example of the increasingly complex and demanding workloads that are pushing data centers to move away from the classic server computing architecture. These more demanding workloads can be... » read more

MIPI DSI-2 & VESA Video Compression Enable Next-Generation Displays
By Joseph Rodriguez - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Joseph Rodriguez and Simon Bussières It is hard to believe, but it has been 20 years since MIPI Alliance was first founded. The organization was originally formed to standardize the video interface technologies for cameras and displays in phones, with the MIPI acronym standing for Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI). As the mobile industry has evolved, MIPI Alliance has evolved wi... » read more

PCIe 6.0 Takes Data Center Performance To The Next Level
By Lou Ternullo - 12 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Looking back at 2022, we saw a major update to the PCI Express (PCIe) specification. PCIe 6.0 brought with it some of the most fundamental changes yet seen by the specification, resulting in some exciting capabilities that are set to take data center performance to the next level in the years ahead. PCIe has been the interconnect of choice in computing for two decades now. Its ongoing advanc... » read more

Boosting Data Center Memory Performance In The Zettabyte Era With HBM3
By Frank Ferro - 08 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

We are living in the Zettabyte era, a term first coined by Cisco. Most of the world’s data has been created over the past few years and it is not set to slow down any time soon. Data has become not just big, but enormous! In fact, according to the IDC Global Datasphere 2022-2026 Forecast, the amount of data generated over the next 5 years will be at least 2x the amount of data generated over ... » read more

GDDR6 Memory Enables High-Performance AI/ML Inference
By Frank Ferro - 10 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

A rapid rise in the size and sophistication of inference models has necessitated increasingly powerful hardware deployed at the network edge and in endpoint devices. To keep these inference processors and accelerators fed with data requires a state-of-the-art memory that delivers extremely high bandwidth. This blog will explore how GDDR6 supports the memory and performance requirements of artif... » read more

Video Compression And Forward Error Correction On Display Interfaces
By Emma-Jane Crozier - 13 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

To wrap up our recent series of articles on VESA video compression codecs, this month we will look at the use of video compression on digital display interfaces, using the DisplayPort 1.4 standard as an example. DisplayPort (DP) 1.4 was released in 2016, and this was the first display interface standard for external displays to include support for VESA Display Stream Compression (DSC), a vis... » read more

Driving The Future Of Automotive Displays With Video Compression
By Emma-Jane Crozier - 11 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Mobile devices have heavily influenced the demand for displays in all areas of our lives over the last decade, and one area where there has been a particularly rapid transformation is in cars. This article will look at some of display trends in cars and investigate how VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) video compression codecs can be leveraged by automotive designers to meet these ... » read more
