Samsung Electronics announced that it is the world's first company to successfully developed an 8 nm process for next-generation MRAM production, and has achieved yields suitable for mass production.
Samsung says that its new 8nm MRAM demonstrated a 62.5% faster write speed and an 11.5% higher density compared to its previous 14nm generation, while also meeting the highest automotive-grade reliability standards under extreme conditions.
Samsung also says that by the end of 2026 it will start mass producing 5 nm MRAM memory chips, on track for its plans that it laid out in 2024. Last year we reported that TSMC is also developing 5 nm MRAM production processes.
