【三星电子即将推出AI芯片Mach-1，采用LPDDR内存】在今日的三星电子股东大会上，DS部门负责人庆桂显透露，三星计划在年底至明年初推出全新的人工智能（AI）芯片——Mach-1。这款芯片的一大特点是，它并未采用传统的高带宽内存（HBM），而是选择了更经济实惠的低功耗双倍数据速率（LPDDR）内存。
庆桂显表示，Mach-1芯片已经完成了基于FPGA（现场可编程门阵列）的技术验证，目前正处于系统级芯片（SoC）设计的关键阶段。按照计划，该芯片将于今年年底完成制造流程，随后在明年初，三星将推出基于Mach-1的AI系统，标志着三星在AI硬件领域的又一重要突破。
Mach-1芯片被定位为轻量级AI解决方案，旨在提供高效能的同时，降低对昂贵HBM内存的依赖。这一策略不仅有助于降低成本，还可能扩大其在各种市场，尤其是对成本敏感的领域的应用潜力。这一创新举措预示着三星在AI芯片市场竞争中的新策略，以及对更广泛市场的野心。

**Keywords:** Samsung, AI chip, LPDDR memory
**News Content:**
Samsung Electronics is set to unveil its new Artificial Intelligence (AI) chip, the Mach-1, which employs LPDDR memory, as disclosed by DS division head Kyung Kye-hyun during today’s Samsung shareholders meeting. The company plans to release the innovative chip by the end of this year or early next year.
A key feature of the Mach-1 is its departure from the conventional High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) in favor of the more cost-effective Low-Power Double Data Rate (LPDDR) memory. Kyung Kye-hyun revealed that the chip has successfully undergone technology validation based on Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and is currently in the critical phase of System-on-Chip (SoC) design.
As per the schedule, the manufacturing process for the chip is expected to conclude by the end of this year, followed by the launch of an AI system based on Mach-1 in early 2023. This marks another significant milestone for Samsung in the AI hardware domain.
Positioned as a lightweight AI solution, the Mach-1 aims to offer high performance while reducing reliance on costly HBM memory. This strategy not only contributes to cost reduction but also potentially enhances its application potential in various markets, particularly those sensitive to costs. This innovative move signals a new strategy for Samsung in the AI chip market and its ambition to capture a broader share of the market.
