Contemplating the Future of Computing

Richard Murphy   |   April 30, 2013   |   All Products

I spoke Friday at the IEEE Workshop on Microelectronics and Electron Devices (WMED) in Boise about a memory-centric vision for the future of computing. This was my first time at this workshop, and I was very impressed by two things: the high caliber of the talks and the fact that the workshop had strong representation from students at all levels. Coming from the high-performance computing community—which tends to be a somewhat more distinguished, somewhat greyer crowd—seeing a strong...

The HMC Consortium Sets a New Milestone

Susan Platt   |   April 3, 2013   |   All Products

Hybrid Memory Cube

With the HMC Consortium’s first specification final and publicly available, the organization is meeting today to determine next steps for the 2013 working year. Basically, the group will be working on extending the SR PHY spec to reach a signaling rate up to 28 Gb/s and the ultra-short reach PHY to 15 Gb/s. The goal is to have a second-generation spec published by early 2014.

e•MMC—An Ideal Solution for Memory-Hungry Automotive Applications

Giorgio Scuro   |   February 12, 2013   |   All Products

Many car buyers today care more about the infotainment technologies embedded in the dashboard than what’s under the hood. Users want to be connected and have convenient access to their personal content anywhere, anytime, on all of their devices. Their vehicles become just another node in the network, an extension of the user’s digital and social lifestyle. A “connected” car is safer, more comfortable, and more energy-efficient, equipped with early access to important info...

"Paying Our Dues" Paid off with PCM

Paolo Cappelletti   |   January 21, 2013   |   All Products

"Paying Our Dues" Paid off with PCM

“I commend Micron for being able to put silicon down and show volume production of PCM. This blows naysayers away—of which I was one—and shows that the technology can work. It also drives home the lesson that you must pay your dues in terms of development and production time—including the ability to work around a variety of issues like thermal disturb—to achieve a good, production-ready, innovative design.”  - Alan Niebel, CEO of Web-Feet Research ...

Dean’s List – Observations from CES 2013

Dean Klein   |   January 16, 2013   |   All Products

3,100 exhibitors, 150,000 attendees and 100 breakfast-buffet options. What could it be but the 2013 Consumer Electronics Show, an event that surely must be the bane of every stiletto-heeled exhibitor and the boon of podiatrists worldwide? Last week I attended two days of this annual electronics mega-festival and had some time between meetings to catch the spirit of the event and take a peek at some of the promised technology. My feet may never be the same. First general impression: this show was...

Transforming the Ultrathin Experience, Part 1

Ben Thiel   |   January 15, 2013   |   All Products

How do SSDs help your ultrathin be even more ultra-mobile? Two ways: form factor and power savings. In today’s era of portability, the days of lugging an 8 or 10lb laptop through the airport are over. SSDs come in slim, caseless, and lightweight form factors that take up less space, enabling even sleeker ultrathin designs. Our mSATA SSDs measure in at about one-third the size of a credit card, while our incredibly small M500 M.2 form factor is about the size of a stick of gum! Speaking of ...

Gaming Goes Mobile—with Micron Memory Onboard

Bill Randolph   |   December 27, 2012   |   All Products

With the proliferation of mobile devices, gaming has broken its tether to the living room and is now enjoyed everywhere. In fact, according to the latest study from the NPD market research group, 59% of total game play is done on a mobile device. Market research firm Mintel found that 38% of tablet gamers and 20% of mobile phone gamers are playing five or more hours per week. Gaming is clearly a trend that is here to stay.  Additionally, gaming graphics continue to become more detailed, li...

Made for One Another: SSDs and Ultrathins

Justin Sykes   |   December 19, 2012   |   All Products

As the landscape of personal and mobile computing continues to intersect, our storage devices are becoming smaller and lighter while boosting system performance and adding features. Ultrathin notebooks are a new breed of mobile devices that boast the portability of a tablet and the power of a laptop. The broad range of the target market, from business people to college students and even children, means that ”the inside” needs to be tough, versatile, and can’t compromise on spee...

DDR4 Gathers Momentum

Scott Schaefer   |   December 13, 2012   |   All Products

Back in May 2012, we announced our first fully functional DDR4 module. Since then a lot has happened. For starters, our DDR4 modules were selected as one of the year’s most compelling products by EDN.  And there’s more. Since the JEDEC DDR4 standard was published on September 25, 2012, we’ve been actively engaged in supporting educational and outreach activities for the new standard, including presenting at ongoing workshops in Santa Clara and Taiwan where participants le...

Look Out Laptops; Ultrathins are Moving In

Kris Kido   |   November 28, 2012   |   All Products

Ultrathin Infographic

The brutal fight to stay relevant in the rapidly changing client computing market spurred CPU vendors and computer OEMs to rethink their approach to personal computing. They went back to the drawing board and began defining new form factors, energy-efficient processors and systems, and touch displays. The Intel-inspired Ultrabook™ devices are breaking new ground for powerful, sleek, power-efficient ultrathin laptops. ARM vendors, who traditionally played only in the mobile segment, have m...
