Samsung Electronics, AMD Partner to Upgrade Semiconductor Manufacturing Infrastructure and Combine Next-Generation Memory Technologies - 파이낸셜뉴스
Samsung Electronics and AMD are collaborating to enhance semiconductor manufacturing test infrastructure by combining AMD's latest processor with Samsung's memory technologies.
Samsung Electronics is teaming up with U.S. semiconductor company AMD to improve the performance of next-generation semiconductor manufacturing test infrastructure. The plan combines AMD's latest high-performance processor with Samsung Electronics' DDR5 memory, next-generation solid-state drives (SSDs) and Compute Express Link (CXL)-based memory solutions to boost computing performance and data processing speeds.
Enhanced Testing Capabilities
The collaboration focuses on upgrading semiconductor manufacturing test environments used to validate the performance of next-generation memory and storage devices. As memory and I/O technologies advance, the testing equipment must deliver high computing performance and memory bandwidth.
As memory and input/output (I/O) technologies continue to advance, manufacturing test environments must keep pace with rising performance and bandwidth requirements. By combining AMD's latest processor with Samsung Electronics' DDR5 memory, next-generation SSDs and CXL memory solutions, we can achieve scalable computing performance and memory bandwidth, as well as high-speed I/O capabilities.
Technical Specifications
Samsung Electronics will provide DDR5 RDIMMs and MRDIMMs for high-speed data processing, along with PM1763 SSDs based on the sixth-generation PCIe interface and CMM-D MD310 based on CXL 3.2. AMD's EPYC Embedded 9006 Series features the "Zen 6" architecture, supporting up to 256 cores and 512 threads, with processing performance up to 1.8 times that of the previous generation.
The new processors target industrial applications requiring high-performance computing, including automated test equipment for semiconductors, enterprise storage, and network security systems. AMD plans to begin supplying the 128-core model on November 15, with remaining models shipped through year-end.
