[Korea.net News, Science / Tech, October 23 2007] Samsung unveils world's first flash memory based on 30-nano technology

Samsung Electronics Co., the world's largest computer chip maker, said Tuesday (Oct. 23) that it has developed the world's first flash memory chip based on 30-nanometer production technology.

The 64-gigabit NAND flash memory can help produce a 128-gigabyte memory card that can store up to 80 DVD-quality movie files running for 120 hours, Samsung said in a regulatory filing.

The new flash memory, to be used mostly in portable devices such as mobile handsets, digital cameras and music players, will create a US20 billion market over the next three years, Samsung said.
