Micron increses memory speed 20fold
- Increased Bandwith — a single HMC can provide more than 20x the performance of a DDR3 module.
- Power Reductions — HMC is exponentially more efficient than current memory—using just one-tenth as much energy per bit.
- Smaller physical systems — HMC’s stacked architecture uses nearly 90% less space than today’s RDIMMs.
"We would see this working its way to commercial (corporate) solutions as early as 2012, with significant volumes in 2013. These kind of technologies will start to work their way toward the consumer space in 2015, 2016,"
