lpddr5x technical

"LPCAMM2 delivers up to 9,600 MT/s with LPDDR5X in a modular, low power"

LPDDR5X is a modern, low-power type of volatile memory used mostly in smartphones, tablets and other energy-sensitive devices to store working data temporarily while apps run. Think of it as a faster, more efficient short-term memory for a device — its speed and lower power use can improve performance and battery life, so adoption trends affect makers of chips and devices and can signal competitiveness in hardware design.

gddr7 technical

"GDDR7 delivers up to 1.5 TB/s system bandwidth, 60% higher than GDDR6"

GDDR7 is the next-generation type of high-speed memory used mainly in graphics processors and other chips that need to move large amounts of visual data quickly. Think of it as a wider, faster highway that lets images, video and AI calculations flow with less delay and lower power use. Investors watch GDDR7 adoption because it can boost performance of devices, affect component costs and margins, and influence competitiveness and sales cycles across the chip and hardware supply chain.

nvme technical

"The Micron 4600 PCIe Gen5 NVMe™ SSD loads LLMs in under a second"

NVMe is a fast data-transport standard that lets modern solid-state drives (SSDs) move information much more quickly and efficiently than older interfaces, acting like a wider, faster highway between storage and a computer’s processor. For investors, NVMe matters because it boosts device and server performance, can lower operating costs and power use in data centers, and influences which products and suppliers are competitive in markets where speed and efficiency drive revenue and margins.

ufs 4.1 technical

"UFS 4.1 delivers up to 4.2 GB/s, twice the previous generation"

UFS 4.1 is a version of the Universal Flash Storage standard used in consumer devices to store and move data, like a faster, more efficient roadway for files and apps inside a phone, tablet, or laptop. Investors care because it can boost device speed, battery life and user experience, influence component costs and supplier choice, and affect product competitiveness and sales for makers and chip suppliers.

adas technical

"functional safety compliance for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and in-vehicle AI"

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are electronic systems in vehicles that assist the driver with safety tasks. Examples include automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control. These systems use sensors and cameras to improve vehicle safety.

pcie gen6 technical

"The Micron 9650 SSD was the world’s first commercially available PCIe® Gen6 SSD"

PCIe Gen6 is the sixth generation of the PCI Express standard, the high‑speed internal “highway” that links processors, storage, graphics and networking inside computers and servers. It roughly doubles data transfer rates compared with the previous generation, reducing delay and enabling much heavier workloads; investors care because faster internal connectivity can boost performance for data centers, AI, storage and networking markets and raise demand for supporting chips and components.

End-to-end AI memory and storage portfolio spans data center to intelligent edge, with key products now in high-volume production

TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Micron Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: MU) today announced a showcase of its full portfolio of AI-optimized memory and storage solutions during COMPUTEX 2026, empowering next-generation AI data center and intelligent edge applications. As AI workloads expand from training to large-scale inference, including reasoning-heavy and agent-based systems, the demands on memory and storage are intensifying across every layer of the compute stack and memory hierarchy.

“AI context lengths are increasing by 30 times per year,¹ while memory content per server has doubled in the past three years,²” said Sumit Sadana, EVP and Chief Business Officer at Micron Technology. “System performance is now driven by memory bandwidth and memory capacity, more than ever before. This structural shift in the semiconductor ecosystem makes memory and storage indispensable strategic assets – and Micron is leading with a range of industry-first and industry’s best products, from HBM to DRAM and NAND solutions designed for the AI era.”

Memory and storage as the foundation of AI data center performance
Micron's data center memory and storage portfolio is purpose-built to address every layer of the AI infrastructure hierarchy. High-bandwidth memory (HBM) powers high-speed model execution and hot key-value (KV) cache, while LPDDR and DDR deliver system memory for orchestration and long-context expansion (with LPDDR offering greater power efficiency). Data center SSDs round out the stack, offering high-performance drives to address persistent KV cache needs and high-capacity drives for massive data lakes. This tiered memory architecture, with Micron at the heart of every layer, optimizes latency, bandwidth, power, capacity and cost — offloading GPUs to maximize data center token production. Micron's latest milestones across the portfolio demonstrate this momentum:

• HBM: HBM4 36GB 12H enables a 2.6-times increase in large language model (LLM) inference throughput, measured in tokens per second for every 2-times increase in bandwidth.³
• SOCAMM: Micron is the only provider of a 256GB SOCAMM2, the world's highest capacity offering, extending leadership in low-power data center memory by delivering one-third the power and one-third the footprint versus standard RDIMMs.⁴
• High-capacity RDIMMs: Micron sampled the company’s leading-edge 1γ (1 gamma) technology in the 256GB DDR5 RDIMM, which is capable of speeds up to 9,200 megatransfers per second (MT/s), is 40% faster than modules in volume production today, and has more than 40% lower operating power versus two 128GB modules.⁵
• Data center SSDs: The Micron 9650 SSD was the world’s first commercially available PCIe^® Gen6 SSD and is designed to deliver high performance for AI inference and training workloads. Now available at up to 245TB, the Micron 6600 ION sets a new benchmark for density and power efficiency, reducing rack footprint by 82%⁶ and power consumption by half⁷ compared to HDD-based deployments.

AI starts in the cloud; the edge delivers its value
As AI inference expands from the data center to PCs, smartphones, vehicles and embedded systems, the demands on memory and storage are fundamentally changing. Micron is engineering for this shift: Higher-density DRAM keeps AI models and agents resident and running, while Micron's storage solutions evolve into an active working layer, supporting everything from local model caches on an AI PC to real-time sensor fusion inside a vehicle, delivering faster, more responsive AI experiences at every edge.

• LPCAMM: LPCAMM2 delivers up to 9,600 MT/s with LPDDR5X in a modular, low power 128-bit dual-channel design for thinner, lighter PCs.
• GDDR: GDDR7 delivers up to 1.5 TB/s system bandwidth, 60% higher than GDDR6⁸ with up to 33% higher AI inference throughput.⁹
• LPDDR: LPDDR5X delivers industry-leading low-power performance for real-time AI processing across PCs, smartphones, robotics and next-generation automotive platforms.
• Client SSDs: The Micron 4600 PCIe Gen5 NVMe™ SSD loads LLMs in under a second,¹⁰ with 107% better energy efficiency versus prior-generation Gen4 SSDs.¹¹
• UFS for automotive: UFS 4.1 delivers up to 4.2 GB/s, twice the previous generation, with 115°C thermal protection and functional safety compliance for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and in-vehicle AI.
