Samsung Electronics plans to start mass-producing ePOP, a memory chip package that enables the production of thinner and lighter smartphones.
Thanks to its adoption of ePOP, Galaxy S6, which is set to be released in next month, will come in a lighter and slimmer shape, while having a large capacity battery.
Samsung Electronics announced on February 4 that it will start within this month the mass production of the high performance, large capacity one memory ePOP.
ePOP is a memory chip package that combines DRAM, NAND flash and controller into one memory, enabling them to be piled on top of a mobile application processor.
ePOP can contribute to reducing the installation space by up to 40 percent compared to existing method that installs mobile AP, DRAM and NAND flash separately.
