Elpida: 2 Gb DDR2 mobile 40 nm HKMG

Elpida announced the development of chips with 2 GB of memory LPDDR2 (DDR2 Mobile), etched in 40 nm technology and benefiting from HKMG (high-k metal gate). Using this technology allows the manufacturer said increased operating frequencies and reduced power consumption, a particularly important point when it comes to memory for mobile devices.

The manufacturer hopes to produce the first copies of these chips 2Gb memory LPDDR2 by the end of its fiscal year (before March 31, 2012). Etching processes in 30 nm and 25 nm Elpida should then also benefit from technology HKMG.

AMD shows Trinity: APU with Bulldozer CPU and iGPU Cayman

During the AMD Fusion Developer Summit 2011, the house of Sunnyvale has shown for the first time a notebook equipped with APU Trinity. Trinity will, during 2012, the place of APU Llano - officially unveiled in recent days - and it will be much more powerful while sharing the same 32-nanometer production process.

Trinity are integrated into a CPU-based architecture and a bulldozer iGPU Cayman-based architecture. To be more precise the graphics will benefit from an iGPU with power similar to the Radeon HD 6850 (core Barts), but with an internal organization of the ALU-type VLIW4 (core Cayman). It 'important to note that the notebook was working perfectly shown.
