Rexchip Electronics has announced that it successfully completed pilot runs of Elpida Memory's 30nm 2Gb DDR3 product. Pilot run results for Elpida's 30nm process have met expectations and 100% migration remains on schedule, Rexcihp said.
The new 2Gb DDR3 utilizes 30nm advanced process technology developed by Elpida and boasts low power consumption and high efficiency features, Rexchip indicated. It achieves 45% more chips per wafer compared to 40nm process products.
The 30nm 2Gb chip meets the high-speed DDR3-1600 (1600 Mbps) standard, uses energy-efficient 1.35V and is compliant with DDR3-Plus (seamless BL4 access) for upgrading the performance of consumer electrical appliances, Rexchip said.
"We hope to complete the migration to Elpida's 30nm process in the second half of 2011 with a monthly capacity of 85,000 wafers producing 2Gb DDR3 and 4Gb DDR3 for high-end electronic products," said Stephen Chen, president and spokesmen for Rexchip.
Rexchip is Elpida's production subsidiary in Taiwan.
