Micron Teams Up With Hardware IP Partners To Deliver GDDR6 Solutions

Micron detailed its upcoming GDDR6 memory chips and announced that it is working with multiple hardware partners to broaden the applications for the memory beyond graphics.

In addition to Micron’s announcement, three hardware IP partners--Rambus, Northwest Logic, and Avery Design--made their own announcements. Seeing the potential for the use of GDDR6 outside of GPUs, the three are working to deliver a standalone GDDR6 controller IP. In the silicon design industry, an intellectual property (IP) commonly refers to a third-party, wholly finished hardware design that is licensed or bought and integrated into one’s own chip design. This allows for design reuse and cuts the effort of designing one’s own hardware.
