The next breakthrough may not be about stacking more memory on top of logic, but rethinking where computing happens.
RRAM-based Analog In-Memory Computing (A-IMC) offers a fundamentally different approach: compute directly where AI weights are stored, dramatically reducing data movement, memory bandwidth demands, power consumption, and thermal challenges.
Rather than endlessly scaling HBM bandwidth and managing the heat of increasingly complex 3D stacks, we can rethink the memory-compute architecture itself.
HBM makes the data highway wider. SRAM makes the journey shorter. RRAM A-IMC asks: Why move the weights at all?
That's what we're building at TetraMem.
Compute Where the Weights Live!
When China figures out how to manufacture a product, their ability to scale is often greater than the rest of the world combined. We saw this with lithium batteries and solar, for example.
SpaceX is a rare counter-example, where its mass to orbit is roughly an order of magnitude greater than the rest of the world, BUT China now does a majority of non-SpaceX mass to orbit. SpaceX is an anomaly in the matrix.
Maybe RAM will be different, but RAM was a low margin commodity only ~3 years ago. LP5 and LP6 are designed to a common standard that China seems to be solving fast.
Newer HBM architectures and things like an SRAM layer below logic and 3D stacking RAM on top of logic while finding a way to keep the logic cooled will be harder to solve.
