Samsung just announced a new LPDDR5X DRAM chip that is the thinnest in its category. The 12 nm class chips are available in 12 GB and 16 GB packages. It is designed for the low-power RAM market, mostly targeting smartphones with on-device AI capabilities.
The new chip is 0.65 mm thin, making it 9% thinner than its predecessor. The company estimates that will make its cooling 21.2% better.
Samsung created the new chip by optimizing printed circuit board (PCB) and epoxy molding compound techniques, bringing the thickness of the LPDDR5X to the size of a fingernail. It is built in a 4-stack structure, which is four layers packaged together, each consisting of two LPDDR DRAMs.
Samsung is already shipping the new thinner chip to manufacturers. As demand for high-performance, high-density mobile memory solutions grows, the company plans to develop 6-layer 24 GB and 8-layer 32 GB modules into the thinnest packages for future devices.
The space needed for MicroSD card is nearly non existant, use dual SIM as a SD slot and only one physical sim with one eSIM (Or two, why not after all), the reader should'nt take so much space ... It's just that Google doesn't wan...
Where did you learn math especially vilume? This is stacked in height only not length which would be required for SD card slots and 3.5 mm jacks.
So thin that it won't reconsider Samsung a headphone jack. And the charging brick. And the protective case. And any other utilities.
