Micron Technology today announced the launch of Crucial LPCAMM2, a game-changing, next-generation laptop memory specification that uses LPDDR5X mobile memory to boost laptop performance for professionals and creators. Compared to DDR5 SODIMMs, LPCAMM2 offers 58% less active power consumption and 64% space savings, providing higher bandwidth and dual-channel support in a single module.
LPCAMM2 is the ideal high-performance memory solution for AI PCs and complex workloads, and is compatible with the Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 mobile workstation.
"LPCAMM2 is a game-changer for mobile workstation users who want to enjoy the benefits of the latest mobile high-performance memory technology without sacrificing performance, upgradeability, energy efficiency or space," said Jonathan Weech, senior director of product marketing for Micron's Commercial Products Group. With LPCAMM2, we're delivering future-proof memory solutions that deliver faster speeds and longer battery life to support demanding creative and AI workloads. "
"Lenovo's ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 is the first mobile workstation and thin and light laptop on the market to leverage the latest LPCAMM2 form factor for higher performance, faster AI workflows, expandable memory capacity, and longer battery life." Yasumichi Tsukamoto, Vice President and Distinguished Engineer of Lenovo's Commercial Product Solution Development Division, said. "Not only does this powerful combination provide an enhanced user experience, but the low-power memory used in LPCAMM2 module also helps reduce the overall energy consumption of our laptops."
By using LPDDR5X memory, LPCAMM2 achieves ultra-fast speeds of up to 7,500MT/s, which is 1.3 times faster than DDR5 SODIMMs. This memory form factor also reduces power consumption and extends battery life. With up to 80% lower standby power consumption compared to DDR5 SODIMMs, users can work longer time on the go without compromising performance.
A single LPCAMM2 module fills the full 128-bit CPU bus width, providing maximum bandwidth for AI workloads and applications, unlocking the full potential of AI PCs. According to PCMark 10 testing, users can improve the performance of digital content creation workloads by 7% and productivity workloads by 15%. Unlike soldered memory, LPCAMM2 is upgradeable, allowing users to easily replace modules at any time to increase memory capacity. It also features a thinner fanless design, making it more portable and stylish.
