Samsung Electronics will showcase GDDR7 memory chips at the IEEE Solid State Circuit Conference (SSCC) in San Francisco next month. This memory standard is designed for use in graphics cards or gaming consoles and provides more than one and a half times the bandwidth of current GDDR6 chips. This was reported by TechPowerUp. In particular, […]
Despite the sanctions imposed after the invasion of Ukraine, Russia imported more than $1 billion worth of high-tech American and European chips in 2023. According to a Bloomberg report citing classified data from the Russian customs service, the aggressor imported chips from American manufacturers Intel Corp, Advanced Micro Devices and Analog Devices Inc. and European […]
Apple will be the first company to receive chips manufactured using TSMC’s upcoming 2-nanometer process, DigiTimes reports. According to the publication’s sources, Apple is “considered to be the first customer to use this technological process.” TSMC is expected to start producing 2nm chips in the second half of 2025. Terms such as “3nm” and “2nm” […]
Olga Maklashyna, its executive director and head of the cyber security department, spoke at the Paymentsecurity online conference about the “genius” method of extracting chips for new cards, which was found in the Russian “SberBank”. “Chips have become scarce, they have become expensive, accordingly, our colleagues from the emission center came up with a solution […]
American chips and components found in Russian radar systems, drones, tanks, ground equipment and coastal ships, some of which were manufactured in 2020 This was reported by The Washington Post. “Our goal is to actually try to track it down to an American supplier to determine how it got into this weapon system. Just because […]
Samsung has said it is preparing for large-scale production of chips based on the 3GAE (3 nm-class gate all-around early) production process this quarter. This will be the industry’s first 3nm class technology, as well as the first node to use GAAFET (gate-all-around field effect transistors). For reference: the GAAFET architecture, which replaces the current […]
The European Union has announced sanctions against Russian chipmakers. The companies on the list previously suffered from US sanctions in 2014, but now their situation will deteriorate significantly. Experts predict that the situation around Russian chipmakers could worsen significantly, although their situation was already bad after the US sanctions imposed earlier.
