SanDisk is looking for more innovative solutions to address memory limitations, such as stacking NAND Flash within chips. Memory Limitations Push DRAM/NAND Maker To Get More Innovative, SanDisk Proposes The Stacking of NAND Flash Within Chips The rapid rise of AI & the proportional demand for compute has led to the exposure of bottlenecks, which are pushing DRAM and NAND manufacturers into going with the out-of-the-box approach. In the past, chipmakers called it a day by introducing new memory technologies, and DRAM was the primary component. But the rise in costs, development/yield drawbacks, & increased power have led to a […]
