HBM is a high-performance memory that features reduced power consumption and a small form factor. It combines 2.5D packaging with a wider interface at a lower clock speed (as compared to DDR4) to deliver higher overall throughput at a higher bandwidth-per-watt efficiency for high-performance computing applications.

The Northwest Logic HBM2 Controller supports both HBM2 and HBM2E devices with data rates of up to 3.2 Gbps per data pin. With the Rambus HBM2 PHY it comprises a complete HBM2 memory interface subsystem.

Originally designed for graphics applications, GDDR6 is a high-performance memory solution that can be used in a variety of compute-intensive applications including artificial intelligence (AI), data center and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

The Northwest Logic GDDR6 Controller supports data rates of up to 20 Gbps per data pin. With the Rambus GDDR6 PHY, it comprises a complete GDDR6 memory interface subsystem.

The Northwest Logic DDR4 controller core is designed for high memory throughput, high clock rates, and full programmability in computing and networking applications. With the Rambus DDR4 PHY it comprises a complete DDR4 memory interface subsystem.

The Northwest Logic DDR3 controller core is designed for high memory throughput, high clock rates, and full programmability in computing and networking applications.  With the Rambus DDR3 PHY it comprises a complete DDR3 memory interface subsystem.

The Northwest Logic LPDDR4 controller core is designed for use in applications requiring high memory throughput at low power including mobile, automotive, Internet of Things (IoT), laptop PCs, and edge networking devices.

Part of a full suite of memory controller add-on cores, the OCP Interface Core is designed for use in applications requiring the Open Core Protocol (OCP) interface. It requires the Read-Modify-Write core which is available separately.
