Ready to Compete with the US and Korea, China Makes High-Class Memory Chips

Telset.id, Jakarta – China has now made significant strides by developing its first high-end mobile memory chips, marking the country as ready to compete with the US or Korea in the technological space.

This significant achievement is a step taken by ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) showing the revitalization of China’s growth in the semiconductor industry, according to the Gizmochina report.

The introduction of the Low Power Double Data Rate 5 (LPDDR5) chip and dynamic random access memory (DRAM) by CXMT is quite an important development in the field of cellular technology.

This type of memory chip, which is important for electronic devices such as smartphones to laptops, was originally developed by Samsung Electronics from South Korea in 2018.

The successful production of these chips in China is very helpful, considering the increasing US sanctions aimed at hindering its progress in high technology and manufacturing.

This breakthrough is not just about technological prowess, because this is a strategic step for China to reduce its dependence on imported technology, this is a significant step towards independence in essential sectors.

The validation of these chips by leading Chinese smartphone manufacturers such as Xiaomi and Transsion underscores the practical applicability and market readiness of this technology.

Additionally, this achievement also occurred amidst a challenging environment where China faced restrictions in accessing high-end lithography systems from international suppliers.

Despite these obstacles, the country has demonstrated steady progress in the development of semiconductor and manufacturing technologies. The launch of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro, which is powered by a locally made advanced chip, also illustrates China’s capabilities in this field.
