After a series of piecemeal announcements from different hardware vendors over the past year, the future of High Bandwidth Memory 2 (HBM2) is finally coming into focus. Continuing the industry’s ongoing momentum with HBM2 technology, late last month JEDEC published an updated revision of the HBM2 standard. The updated standard added support for even faster memory speeds of up to 3.2Gbps/pin, and in the process pushed the fastest speed for a complete stack of HBM2 memory to 410GB/sec. Meanwhile the memory manufacturers themselves have been preparing for this moment for a while, and Samsung has put out their own matching announcement regarding their Flashbolt HBM2 memory.
