'Many innovations were born at Samsung's India R&D unit'
Mint Mumbai|April 17, 2023
Samsung Semiconductor India Research (SSIR) has been instrumental in driving the global innovations of its parent Samsung Electronics, with products like the groundbreaking Exynos chip, the world’s first 108-megapixel camera, and a host of advanced phone sensors.
'Many innovations were born at Samsung's India R&D unit'

In an interview, the firm’s corporate vice president and managing director Balajee Sowrirajan provided insights into the company’s focus on innovation, and the trends that are shaping the industry. Edited excerpts:

How has SSIR contributed to the innovations at Samsung?

Globally, Samsung Semiconductor comprises three major business units—memory, foundry, and system large-scale integration. Volatile memories such as static random access memory and dynamic random access memory need power to store data, but non-volatile memory (solid-state drive) does not need power to retain information in the chip. We have been building DRAMs for over 30 years. But we work more on non-volatile memory storage solution space such as SSD drives.

Please give us some examples.
