Who needs DDR4 PHY running at 2667 Mbps?
As of today, DDR4 are targeting server, networking and consumer applications, and it will take another year before we use DDR4 equipped PC at home. In fact, a majority of consumers will rather buy a smartphone or tablet than a PC, most of these devices coming with PLDDR2 and only a few high-end tablets are equipped with LPDDR3 memory. The low-power LPDDR4 specification for tablets and smartphones is still under development, and it may takes many years before it reaches mobile devices, that’s why Amjad Qureshi, senior group director, Cadence IP Group think that DDR4 may also be used for ultrathin and high end tablet markets. We may wonder if it was a good decision to develop and launch DDR4 Memory Controller IP, including a PHY up to 2667 Mbps…
