The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...

We have been excited about the possibilities of adding tiers of memory to systems, particularly persistent memories that are less expensive than DRAM but offer similar-enough performance and ...

Developed a flexible cache simulator which implemented L1 cache, its Victim cache and L2 cache. Analyzed the performance of various memory hierarchy configurations with varying parameters and ...

In a computer, the entire memory can be separated into different levels based on access time and capacity. Figure 1 shows different levels in the memory hierarchy. Smaller and faster memories are kept ...

Experts at the Table — Part 2: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to talk about AI and the latest issues in SRAM with Tony Chan Carusone, chief technology officer at Alphawave Semi; Steve Roddy, chief ...

Experts at the Table — Part 3: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to talk about AI, the latest issues in SRAM, and the potential impact of new types of memory, with Tony Chan Carusone, CTO at ...

Samsung Electronics staged a strong rebound in the third quarter of 2025 and set the tone for the next phase of the memory ...

In semiconductors, architecture refers to the instruction set architecture (ISA), a detailed set of rules and specifications governing how a chip processes data and executes instructions. This ISA ...

Micron has now entered the HBM3 race by introducing a “second-generation” HBM3 DRAM memory stack, fabricated with the company’s 1β semiconductor memory process technology, which the company announced ...

For several decades, NAND Flash has been the primary technology for low-cost and large-density data storage applications. This non-volatile memory is present in all major electronic end-use markets, ...
