In 8GB capacities

Micron has started volume production of its GDDDR6 DRAM chip.

Things are looking up

Micron claims to have overcome key DRAM and Flash memory problems and says the industry is looking rather good.

With a slight voltage bump

It appears that Micron will easily extend from its JEDEC 14Gbps transfer speed as, according to Micron, it can hit as high as 20Gbps with a slight voltage bump.

SVP and GM Mobile BU

A key member of the Qualcomm team in charge of the IoT, has started working at Micron. He got a saucy offer and left to Micron to be SVP and GM of Mobile Business Unit.

Rayfield runs the RTG, David Wang engineering

Before anyone jumps the gun claiming that Mike Rayfield, the newly promoted Senior Vice President and General Manager of AMD Radeon Technologies Group (RTG) is ex Micron, we wanted to point out that he used to run Tegra for Nvidia before. The man who will replace Raja Koduri’s engineering talents comes from ATI and Synaptics. David Wang is now Senior Vice President of Engineering at RTG.

Thanks for the memories

Intel and Micron are to pull the plug on their long-running partnership on 3D NAND flash memory by early next year.

The semiconductor man

Advanced Micro Devices has made the ex-CEO of Micron a director on its board.

Based on 3D MLC NAND

Crucial and its NAND partner Micron have unveiled its latest entry-level BX300 series SSD, which teams 3D MLC NAND in combination with a Silicon Motion SM2258 controller.
