Earlier this year, the South Korean memory chip manufacturer SK Hynix announced the arrival of their cutting-edge DRAM, claiming it would be the fastest DRAM in the market. In recent reports which have emerged online, it has been confirmed that this DRAM will be worth waiting for. Apparently, MediaTek has tested out the LPDDR5T chips with their upcoming processor and confirmed that the new LPDDR5T ( Low Power Double Data Rate 5 Turbo) is faster than anything else currently available in the market.
As per the reports, the LPDDR5T will have a 9.6 Gbps data rate, a 13 percent increase from the current generation LPDDR5X by Samsung. It operates at ultra-low voltages of 1.01 to 1.12V, which is 10% lower than the previous generation LPDDR5X. This makes LPDDR5T extremely power efficient while still providing fast speeds of up to 9.6 Gbps. It is also available in a variety of storage capacities, up to 16GB. This allows for high-performance mobile devices with plenty of storage space. SK Hynix has also provided samples of 16GB multi-chip packages, which combine multiple LPDDR5T chips into one package. This allows for even higher speeds and processing power, up to 77GB of data per second.
It is speculated that MediaTek has used the Dimensity 9300 SoC to test out the LPDDR5T DRAM from SK Hynix. Going by that logic, we can expect upcoming phones featuring the Dimensity 9300 SoC to also come with LPDDR5T DRAM onboard. Currently, the Vivo X100 and the X100 Pro are the likely candidates, as earlier leaks have revealed that these smartphones feature the Dimensity 9300 SoC. That being said, this is merely speculation at this point, so we suggest readers take it with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more.
