CXMT CLAIMS FIFTH-GEN DRAM PLATFORM MATCHES INDUSTRY'S MOST ADVANCED NODES

Summary from the TLDR Hardware newsletter

CXMT said its fifth-generation DRAM platform has entered mass production, claiming process capability "on par with the most advanced mass-produced nodes out there in the industry." The company reduced the spacing of key data-storage structures to 11.95 nanometers using "quadruple patterning," a technique that repeats manufacturing steps to produce finer circuit patterns without needing EUV lithography, and says the new platform yields at least 50% more dies per wafer than its fourth generation on an 8-gigabit baseline.
