Akshay Singh on Building the Fastest Memory on the Planet

By Rebecca Lewington - 2021-04-05

Everything Micron makes is a nanoscale miracle. But High Bandwidth Memory stacks — pun intended — multiple miracles to make the fastest memory on the planet. HBM is designed for supercomputing applications that demand the maximum possible bandwidth between memory and processing.

Built with thousands of microscopic data pathways piercing a stack of thinner-than-paper memory chips, HBM is an amazing feat of semiconductor engineering. To share that amazement with you, I’ve enlisted the expert help of Akshay Singh, who leads the advanced packaging technology development team in Taiwan that makes this remarkable technology possible.
