Paving the way to faster and more efficient computing, BBCube 3D achieves higher data transmission bandwidths than other state-of-the-art memory technologies. Moreover, it minimises the energy needed for bit access.<\/p>\n
The most important breakthrough made with this technology is that it has the potential to resolve issues associated with the integration of PUs and dynamic random access memory (DRAM).<\/p>\n
In the digital age, engineers and researchers have developed new computer-assisted technologies that require higher data bandwidths between the processing units and memory chips.<\/p>\n
Examples of modern bandwidth-extensive applications include Artificial Intelligence, molecular simulations, climate prediction, and genetic analysis.<\/p>\n
Until BBCube 3D, data transmission has proved difficult. To increase the data bandwidth, either more wires must be added between the PUs and the memory or the data rate needs to be increased.<\/p>\n
The first approach is too difficult to implement because transmission between the components usually happens in two dimensions, making the addition of more wires tricky.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, increasing the data rate requires increasing the energy needed to access a bit each time (the bit access energy), which is also difficult.<\/p>\n
This is where BBCube 3D comes into play.<\/p>\n
The most notable aspect of the new technology is its ability to realise connections between PUs and DRAMs in three dimensions instead of two<\/a> (Fig. 1).<\/p>\n
