Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. announced Tuesday (April 21) that it is ramping up 50-nm class production of DDR3 memory chips in response to increased demand stemming from Intel Corp.'s launch of the Xeon processor 5500 series.

Samsung said its DDR3 enables OEMs to design servers that use up to 192 gigabytes (GBs) per system (16GBx12) and provides at least a 60 percent improvement in power consumption and double system performance, with speeds up to 1333 Megabits per second (Mbps), compared with its predecessor DDR2.

Newly validated DDR3 chips are available at speeds of 800-, 1066- and 1333-megabits per second and can offer up to a 40 percent power savings at 1333-Mbps, compared to 60-nm-class DDR3 chips, according to Samsung.

Samsung believes that DDR3, the third generation of double-data rate (DDR) synchronous memory, will go into mainstream by the end of this year. However, some analysts, like Edwin Mok from Needham & Co. LLC, have have suggested that DDR3 will not have meaningful market share this year.
