Rambus accelerates AI performance with 24 Gb/s GDDR6 PHY

1 min read

Rambus has announced what it is claiming as a new product milestone for GDDR6 memory interface performance.

The Rambus GDDR6 PHY delivers a data rate of up to 24 Gigabits per second (Gb/s), providing 96 Gigabytes per second (GB/s) of bandwidth per GDDR6 memory device. As part of a system-level solution, the Rambus GDDR6 offering enables cost-efficient, high-bandwidth memory performance for AI/ML, graphics and networking applications.

“With the new level of performance achieved by our GDDR6 PHY, designers can deliver the bandwidth needed by the most demanding workloads,” said Sean Fan, chief operating officer at Rambus. “As with our industry leading HBM3 memory interface, this latest achievement demonstrates our continued commitment to advancing state-of-the-art memory performance to meet the needs of advanced computing applications such as generative AI.”

In addition to a performance of 24 Gb/s, the GDDR6 PHY has been fully optimised to meet the needs of AI/ML and other advanced applications that require a high-bandwidth, low latency memory solution.

The GDDR6 PHY can be combined with Rambus GDDR6 digital controller IP to provide a complete GDDR6 memory interface subsystem solution.

Key features:

  • Delivers data rate of up to 24 Gb/s for a maximum bandwidth of 96 GB/s,
  • Offers a complete memory subsystem solution when combined with the Rambus GDDR6 digital controller IP,
  • Features LabStation development environment that enables quick system bring-up, characterization and debug,
  • Builds on Rambus 30-year leadership in high-speed signal integrity, power integrity (SI/PI) expertise,
  • Reference design and support for packaging and PCB.
