Samsung Electronics has exceptionally granted treasury share efficiency bonuses to key personnel in next-generation excessive bandwidth reminiscence (HBM) improvement. This was particular compensation for his or her contribution to growing the core chip 10-nanometer (nm; 1nm = 1 billionth of a meter) Sixth-generation DRAM (1c DRAM) for HBM4, which is the Sixth-generation HBM. Trade watchers say that seen outcomes at an important juncture for rebuilding the reminiscence powerhouse prompted speedy rewards.
Samsung Electronics introduced on Oct. 30 that it might grant 4,790 frequent shares as improvement venture aim achievement incentives to 30 executives and staff.

Jeon Younger-hyun, president (vice chairman) of the Machine Options (DS) Division who took workplace in Might final 12 months, made supplying HBM4 to Nvidia a prime precedence and ordered redesign of Sixth-generation DRAM. The DRAM handed Samsung Electronics’ inner efficiency take a look at (PRA) in July this 12 months and has at present been supplied to Nvidia as an HBM4 pattern.
Not like the earlier technology HBM3E, Nvidia is reportedly evaluating HBM4 positively. In a press launch about synthetic intelligence (AI) cooperation between the Korean authorities and corporations on Oct. 31 (native time), Nvidia specified that “Samsung Electronics is a key associate in Nvidia’s HBM3E and HBM4 provide chain.” Samsung Electronics achieved information switch speeds of 11Gbps, the trade’s highest degree, by preemptively introducing Sixth-generation DRAM.
Samsung Electronics is accelerating the transition to Sixth-generation DRAM to regain dominance within the HBM market. Kim Jae-june, vice chairman of Samsung Electronics’ Reminiscence Enterprise Division, reconfirmed HBM4 mass manufacturing dedication on the third-quarter earnings convention on Oct. 30, stating, “We’ll actively execute investments obligatory for increasing Sixth-generation DRAM manufacturing capability.”
