    Samsung Details LPDDR5X Processing-in-Memory

    Samsung presented its LPDDR5X Processing-in-Memory (PIM) approach at Hot Chips 2026, embedding MAC units inside DRAM chips while keeping compatibility with standard memory controllers. The design aims to use internal DRAM bandwidth for low-precision compute, with special row commands switching between normal memory access and PIM register operations.
