Samsung Demos Future Memory Chips

Posted by timothy on from the future-is-tense dept.

Fletcher points to this story in CNET Asia, excerpting "The Korean electronics giant unveiled an 8-gigabit flash memory chip Monday based on the 60-nanometer process, as well as a 2-gigabit DDR DRAM chip based on the 80-nanometer process. Flash chips, which retain data after a host computer is turned off, are used in flash cards and cell phones, while DDR DRAM is used inside PCs."

    You might just be in luck, for this very day I read an article about a Korean electronics giant unveiling a 2-gigabit DDR DRAM chip based on the 80-nanometer process.

    Now if only I could remember where I saw that article...
