Chinese DRAM makers have sped up their memory production capabilities, with another company now mass-producing DDR5 RDIMMs for servers.
Chinese Domestic DRAM Manufacturers Accelerate DDR5 Production, 64 GB RDIMMs Now Being Supplied To Data Centers
As the AI supercycle continues, memory requirements have swelled to unparalleled proportions. Demand is rising in all regions, including China, where several data centers are coming online at an accelerated pace.
In all of this, Chinese DRAM manufacturers are boosting their production capacities rapidly. We have seen how CXMT and YMTC have been involved in an Epic expansion plan, aiming to double their wafer output by spending billions in building additional production hubs across the country. But there are more DRAM suppliers than just these two.
Back in 2021, Jiahe Jinwei announced that it was going to produce DDR5 memory. Now, its subsidiary, SINKER, which is a brand under POWEV, has announced the launch of its latest DDR5 RDIMM memory solutions.
As per SINKER’s official listing, the company is now offering its DDR5 DIMMs in two variants, one of which is purely focused on the domestic Chinese markets, and one that is supplied globally. The company’s DDR5 memory comes in UDIMM, SODIMM, and RDIMM variants with up to 64 GB capacities and speeds of up to 5600 MT/s. The main features listed by the company include:
- Power-On Protection for Reliable Storage
Shock and Drop Resistance for Durable Longevity
Compliant with JEDEC Standard Form Factor, Ensuring Plug-and-Play Functionality and Excellent Compatibility
Application Fields:
• Mobile Terminals: Laptops
• Functional Devices: Desktop Computers, All-in-One Computers
• Smart Terminals: Educational Systems, Medical Equipment, Government Affairs Systems, etc.
• Commercial Electronics: Large Conference Centers, Advertising Displays, Commercial Display Devices, etc.
The company has stated that it has already shipped its first DDR5 RDIMM to data centers, and with production ramping up, it will continue to meet the domestic requirements. Due to global supply constraints, memory prices have seen a major increase. Relying on domestic producers helps Chinese companies to tackle these through in-house solutions rather than relying on bigger companies such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, which are currently invested in by major AI firms with zero additional capacity available in stock.
