Making Strong Error-Correcting Codes Work Effectively for HBM in AI Inference

LLM inference is increasingly memory-bound, and HBM cost per GB now dominates system cost. Today’s HBM stacks include short on-die ECC, which tightens binning, raises price, and locks reliability policy inside the device. This paper asks a simple question: can we tolerate a much higher raw HBM bit error rate (BER) and still keep end-to-end correctness and throughput, without changing the HBM PHY or the fixed 32B transaction size?

High Bandwidth Memory Evolution from First Generation HBM to the Latest HBM4

HBM4 is the latest generation of the High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) that has become analogous to the Artificial Intelligence (AI) boom that is everywhere in today’s world. HBM is also increasingly being used in other applications like Data centers, autonomous driving systems, servers, cloud computing just to mention few domains where bandwidth and performance in a key requirement.

Breaking the HBM Bit Cost Barrier: Domain-Specific ECC for AI Inference Infrastructure

High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) delivers exceptional bandwidth and energy efficiency for AI workloads, but its high cost per bit, driven in part by stringent on-die reliability requirements, poses a growing barrier to scalable deployment. This work explores a systemlevel approach to cost reduction by eliminating on-die ECC and shifting all fault management to the memory controller.

High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) Model & Verification IP Implementation - Beginner's guide

With ever increasing need for very high operating frequency of graphics (GPU) or general purpose (CPU) processors, the limited memory bandwidth forms a bottleneck to extract maximum performance out of a system. To add to this, low power consumption, form factor of the memory devices also play significant roles in optimal and efficient solutions.
