Samsung plans to launch UFS 5.0 in 2027, increasing sequential read speed to more than 10GB/s

Thanks to netizens lemon_meta and SNOS for submitting clues! According to news on March 21, Samsung Semiconductor recently announced a new product roadmap on its official public account, which includes UFS 4.0 4 and UFS 5.0.

Samsung said that in recent years, end-to-end artificial intelligence has become very popular in the smartphone market. In order to realize the end-to-end operation of large language models, researchers have carried out research on model size. It is well known from various studies that the implementation of lightweight services requires reducing the size of storage and memory and increasing bandwidth. Considering the future development of client-side large language model services, it is necessary to start improving the UFS interface speed now. Samsung is developing a new product that uses UFS 4.0 technology, but increases the number of channels from the current 2 to 4. At the same time, mass production is expected in 2025, with a sequential read speed of 8GB/s. Samsung said that "improving sequential reading speed can shorten model loading time." Noted that the new product roadmap also shows that Samsung plans to launch UFS 5.0 products in 2027, and the sequential read speed is expected to increase to more than 10GB/s. To achieve this goal, Samsung said it will work with mobile customers and AP companies to prepare for the new standard. Samsung will also implement a three-party collaboration model through proof of concept to jointly define relevant use cases and develop new technologies.

The above is the detailed content of Samsung plans to launch UFS 5.0 in 2027, increasing sequential read speed to more than 10GB/s. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
