SK Hynix’s LPDDR5T Memory on Dimensity 9300
In an exciting development for the mobile technology landscape, SK Hynix has announced the successful verification of its latest LPDDR5T memory in MediaTek’s highly anticipated next-generation mobile platform, believed to be the Dimensity 9300. The collaboration between SK Hynix and MediaTek has resulted in a significant leap in memory speeds, revolutionizing mobile device performance.
The upcoming flagship mobile chipset from MediaTek, expected to debut later this year, will incorporate SK Hynix’s LPDDR5T memory, boasting remarkable speeds of up to 9.6Gbps. This represents a remarkable 13 percent increase in speed compared to the previous-generation LPDDR5X memory.
Impressively, SK Hynix managed to expedite the timeline for achieving these groundbreaking speeds, as the semiconductor industry had initially projected that such capabilities might only be realized with future iterations like LPDDR6, slated for release after 2026.
The partnership between SK Hynix and MediaTek bore fruit in February 2023, when SK Hynix provided samples of its LPDDR5T memory for rigorous testing. MediaTek’s next-generation Dimensity flagship chipset, a key component of their renowned Dimensity Platform series of mobile Application Processors (APs), was put through its paces in performance tests. The LPDDR5T memory showcased its prowess by enabling the chipset to operate at a blazingly fast speed of 9.6Gbps, marking an industry-first achievement.
JC Hsu, Corporate Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Wireless Communications Business Unit at MediaTek, emphasized the significance of this achievement. He noted that this collaborative effort has paved the way for MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity chipset to outperform previous expectations, unlocking unparalleled levels of mobile performance. Developers and users can anticipate a new era of capabilities, pushing the boundaries of what mobile devices can achieve.
With this breakthrough in memory technology, SK Hynix and MediaTek have not only set a new standard for mobile performance but have also provided a glimpse into the future possibilities of mobile technology. As consumers eagerly await the release of MediaTek’s next-generation flagship mobile chipset, the stage is set for a new wave of innovation in the mobile industry.
