Pioneering eMRAM for Next-Generation Automotive Technology
Samsung leads in developing 5nm eMRAM to meet growing automotive sector demands. This technology is perfect for automotive applications since it has excellent heat resistance and fast read and write rates.
In 2019, Samsung began its eMRAM journey by developing and manufacturing the first 28nm FD-SOI-based eMRAM in the industry. The plan calls for the addition of 14nm by 2024, 8nm by 2026, and 5nm by 2027. The 8nm eMRAM is anticipated to offer a 33% speed jump and 30% density increase over the 14nm technology.
Expanding Automotive Process Solutions
Samsung Electronics plans to mass-produce a 2nm process for automotive applications by 2026, as per their advanced roadmap. The business is also expanding an essential technology for manufacturing power semiconductors, the 8-inch BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) process. In 2025, Samsung will introduce the 90nm BCD process, shrinking chip area by 20% compared to the 130nm technology.
A higher voltage of 120V (instead of the present 70V) will be possible for a broader range of applications thanks to Deep Trench Isolation (DTI) technology, which reduces the distance between transistors to improve the performance of power semiconductors. Samsung Foundry plans to release a 130nm BCD PDK meeting the 120V standard by 2025.
Leading ‘Beyond-Moore’ Innovation with Advanced Packaging Alliance
The development of 2.5D and 3D packaging solutions tailored for several applications, from automotive to high-performance computing (HPC), is spearheaded by Samsung’s Multi-Die Integration (MDI) Alliance, established with SAFE partners and other industry players.
Global Reach of the Samsung Foundry Forum
In addition to Europe, the United States, South Korea, and Japan sponsored the Samsung Foundry Forum 2023, demonstrating Samsung’s global dedication to semiconductor technology advancement. Beginning November 2, the forum’s information will be available to visitors worldwide via the Samsung Semiconductor website.
