Smartphones To Get Novel Memory Material
By
One of the problems plaguing mobile devices is battery life and Samsung plans to help out a bit by developing a new type of memory material that will require less energy to operate. Phase Change Memory (PCM) should make its debut some time in 2010.
Smartphones could have their battery life extended by up to 20% by changing what type of memory they use. Samsung has announced plans to produce memory modules built of what is known as a phase change material. These modules are built of a substance that records or erases data when it is heated and typically use far less power than existing equivalents.
