TechInsights has uncovered the world's most advanced 3D NAND memory chip in a consumer device, a surprise achievement from China's YMTC, a top 3D NAND manufacturer. This chip is crucial for high-performance computing, especially in AI and machine learning, and marks a significant leap in technology, being the first quad-level cell (QLC) 3D NAND die with over two hundred active word lines detected by TechInsights.
It is probably not important enough for any “hype”
The same thing happened last year with China’s first 7nm chip in a bitcoin miner. It was launched without any fanfare and only discovered by TechInsights a year later.
