Memory committee thrashes out next gen memories

Those, said JEDEC, include future enhancements to DDR3, next gen specs for notebook and servers, LPDDR2 and non volatile memory (NVM) and GDDR5.

LPDDR2 is a low power non volatile memory standard that's proposed to work on the same operating frequencies and be bus compatible. While the JEDEC members have found significant challenges to match this standard with existing standards, the committee has said it's made progress on this.

GDDR5 - a graphics memory spec - will be released in the second half of next year, and provide twice the density of GGDR4 with memory ranging from 512MB to 2GB. The memory will have a new clocking structure and better error detection as well as further structural changes to increase programmability. µ

JEDEC Yeah JEDEC used to stand for something but now it's just JEDEC, ok?
