Technology Leadership
of Hynix Semiconductors
Hynix Semiconductors, a company
specializing in memory semiconductors
such as DRAM and NAND flash, announced
its decision to focus on Mobile
memory instead of Main memory and
low voltage operation technology for a
green semiconductor industry.
The 1GB DDR3 DRAM is the first
product that has been developed by applying
the 44nm process and it boasts
50% higher productivity than the current
54nm process products. The '3 dimensional
transistor technology' has
been applied to this product allowing reduced
power wastage by control of leakage
currents and secured the position
with the fastest operation speed in the
industry. This product will be mass produced
in the 3rd quarter of this year and
furthermore will be applied to 30nm
process technology. In addition, this
technology will be implemented in mass
storage memory modules, mobile
DRAM and graphic DRAMs by
strengthening the high speed operation
and low power wastage of DDR3 products.
Hynix has confirmed its top technical
level once again by releasing the
40nm-class DDR3 products, and is provoking
high anticipation to lead the
DDR3 market through products differentiated
by processes a generation ahead
of competitors.
In the NAND flash department, the
mass production of 20nm-class 64GB
NAND flash product has begun and is
in the ramping up. Hynix states that
they have again reached the leading level
of technical expertise through the successful
mass production of this product.
Productivity has improved by 60% in relation
to the current 30nm 32GB products,
resulting in the best level of competition
for production costs. Hynix 30nm
32GB NAND flash products have been
collaborated with controllers from high
quality NAND flash design company
Anobit, reinforcing the reliability of storage
devices and reducing errors in data
storage. Also the easy to access 40nmclass
2GB LPDDR2 (Low Power
DDR2) was unveiled to show the
strengths of Hynix Semiconductors.
This product is the first high capacity
2GB to have undergone 40nm-class micro
processes in the world, and is capable
of operation under the lowest voltage
of mobile products, 1.35V. The state of
the art technology products showcased
by Hynix displays low voltage operation
capability, clearly showing Hynix as the
Tech Leadership through power cost reduction
and eco friendly semiconductor
technology and emphasizes technology
research and expansions of mass production
systems following the strong position
of mobile industries and increased
demand for tablet PCs and iPads.
Hynix Semiconductors succeed in mass production of 20nm-class 64GB NAND flash
