Samsung’s multichip package based on LPDDR5 UFS has begun mass production
“Samsung’s new LPDDR5 uMCP is built upon our rich legacy of memory advancements and packaging know-how, enabling consumers to enjoy uninterrupted streaming, gaming, and mixed reality experiences even in lower-tier devices,” said Young-soo Sohn, vice president of the Memory Product Planning Team at Samsung Electronics. “As 5G-compatible devices become more mainstream, we anticipate that our latest multichip package innovation will accelerate the market transition to 5G and beyond, and help to bring the metaverse into our everyday lives a lot faster.”
Thanks to the latest mobile DRAM and NAND flash memory interfaces, Samsung’s uMCP can provide faster speed and large storage capacity with extremely low power consumption, allowing consumers to immerse themselves in many 5G applications. In the past, similar experiences could only be provided on high-end models, including an advanced camera, graphics-intensive games, and AR. Compared with previous solutions based on LPDDR4x DRAM and UFS 2.2 NAND flash memory, DRAM performance has increased by 50%, from 17GB/s to 25GB/s, and NAND flash memory performance has doubled, from 1.5GB/s to 3GB/ s, making flagship performance possible.
