What is HBM?
High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) is a high-performance computer RAM standard for 3D-stacked DRAM. It's used in conjunction with high-performance graphics accelerators, network devices, and high-performance computing. HBM offers significantly higher bandwidth and lower power consumption compared to older technologies like DDR4 or GDDR5 by stacking multiple DRAM dies and connecting them with through-silicon vias (TSVs).
What other technologies are related to HBM?
HBM Competitor Technologies
LPDDR
LPDDR (Low-Power Double Data Rate) is a type of synchronous dynamic RAM that consumes less power and is used in mobile devices. It is a competitor as it addresses similar needs, albeit at lower performance.
DDR
DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is a type of synchronous dynamic RAM with higher bandwidth than its predecessors. While lower performance, it competes in some applications.
GDDR
GDDR (Graphics Double Data Rate) is a type of high-performance memory used in graphics cards. It is a competitor as it addresses high-bandwidth memory needs.
LPDDRx
No summary available
LPDDRx is a newer version of LPDDR. It is a competitor as it addresses similar needs, albeit at lower performance, to HBM.
DDR4/5
DDR4/5 are types of synchronous dynamic RAM with higher bandwidth. While lower performance, it competes in some applications with HBM.
DDR5
DDR5 is a type of synchronous dynamic RAM with higher bandwidth. While lower performance, it competes in some applications with HBM.
DDRx
DDRx is a generalization of DDR, DDR2, DDR3, DDR4 and DDR5. While lower performance, it competes in some applications with HBM.
GDDR6
GDDR6 (Graphics Double Data Rate 6) is a type of high-performance memory used in graphics cards. It is a competitor as it addresses high-bandwidth memory needs.
HBM Complementary Technologies
UCIe
UCIe (Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express) is a standard for connecting chiplets in a package, and HBM can be used as memory in such chiplet-based systems.
PCIe
PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) is a standard for connecting components in a computer, and HBM can be used as memory attached to devices connected via PCIe.
CXL
CXL (Compute Express Link) is an interconnect technology that provides a high-bandwidth, low-latency connection between a CPU and other devices, including memory. HBM can be memory used in CXL-attached devices.
