SK hynix unveils ultra-high performance memory tech at CES 2024

SK hynix Inc. will be presenting its technology for ultra-high performance memory products at CES 2024. These memory products are expected to play a crucial role in the development of future AI infrastructure. CES 2024 is a tech event scheduled to be held in Las Vegas from January 9 to 12.

SK hynix said that it will highlight its future vision represented by its Memory Centric at the show and promote the importance of memory products accelerating the technological innovation in the AI era and its competitiveness in the global memory markets. The company will run a space titled SK Wonderland jointly with other major SK Group affiliates including SK Inc., SK Innovation, and SK Telecom, and showcase its major AI memory products including HBM3E.

SK hynix plans to provide HBM3E to some of the world’s largest AI technology companies by starting mass production in the first half of 2024.

At SK Group’s space with an amusement-park theme, SK hynix will display an AI Fortuneteller where the generative AI technology based on HBM3E is applied. The AI fortune teller is expected to give visitors fun by creating an image of their cartoon characters based on their faces and reading New Year fortunes.

SK hynix’s AI technology will also be displayed at the SK ICT Family Demo Room jointly run by other SK ICT companies. The company will showcase Compute Express Link, a next-generation interface, a test product of computational memory solution (CMS), a memory solution that integrates the computational functions of CXL, and Accelerator-in-Memory based Accelerator, a processing-in-memory chip-based accelerator card with low-cost and high-efficiency for generative AI.

Particularly, CXL memory, along with HBM, is one of the core products in the limelight with the rise of AI technology. SK hynix plans to commercialise 96GB and 128GB CXL 2.0 memory solutions based on DDR5 in the second half for shipments to AI customers.

“We are thrilled to showcase our technology, which has risen to the core of the AI infrastructure in the United States, home to AI technology,” said Justin Kim, a president and head of AI Infra at SK hynix. “SK hynix will step up its efforts for collaboration with global players while seeking to accelerate a turnaround in business with its leadership in the AI memory space.”
