Samsung Confirms HBM4E Memory Running at 16 Gbps Per Pin
At the Hot Chips 2026 conference's Advance Program, Samsung's Sangwook Han confirmed that the company is preparing to ship HBM4E memory with speeds of 16 Gbps per pin. This is a significant confidence boost for Samsung's Semiconductor division, which has been shipping HBM4E with speeds of 14 Gbps per pin since late May of this year. Essentially, the company confirmed that its scaling progress is going well, and HBM4E represents another milestone in high-bandwidth memory technology that it can produce with impressive speed. Samsung's own HBM4 is now shipping at 11.7 Gbps, making the jump to HBM4E even more impressive.
