SoftBank and Intel Team Up to Develop New Energy-Efficient AI Memory Chip with Power Consumption Halved
Recently, SoftBank and Intel have jointly developed a new AI-specific memory chip aimed at significantly reducing power consumption to provide more efficient support for Japan's AI infrastructure. According to Nikkei Asia, the goal of their cooperation is to design a new type of stacked DRAM chip. The wiring method of this chip will be different from the popular High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) on the market, expected to reduce power consumption by about 50%.
