Revolutionizing Laptop Memory: Micron’s Crucial LPCAMM2 Enhances Performance and Efficiency for Mobile Workstations
In recent news, Micron Technology has released the Crucial LPCAMM2, a new form factor for laptop memory that utilizes LPDDR5X mobile memory. This innovative technology promises to reduce active power consumption by up to 58% and occupy only 64% of the space compared to DDR5 SODIMMs, enhancing laptop performance for professionals and creators. According to Jonathan Weech, senior director of product marketing for Micron’s Commercial Products Group, the LPCAMM2 is a game-changer for mobile workstation users who want to enjoy the benefits of high-performance mobile memory without sacrificing superior performance, upgradeability, power efficiency or space.
Lenovo has been the first to integrate this new memory form factor into its ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 laptop. Yasumichi Tsukamoto, vice president of Commercial Product Solutions Development at Lenovo, stated that their ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 is now equipped with the latest LPCAMM2 form factor, enabling faster AI workflows and improved battery life for mobile workstations and thin and light laptops. The LPCAMM2 supports speeds of up to 7,500MT/s which are approximately 1.3 times faster than DDR5 SODIMMs and offers up to 80% less standby power. It is designed to maximize bandwidth for AI workloads and applications by filling all 128 bits of CPU bus width with a single module. Unlike soldered-down memory, LPCAMM2 modules are also upgradeable, allowing users to increase memory capacity as needed.
Micron’s LPCAMM2 is currently available in densities of 32GB and 64GB and can be purchased exclusively through www.crucial.com. It comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
