- Reading notesVariant-specific context, source conflicts, historical status and unconfirmed details.
- SK hynix puts first-generation HBM at 1 Gb/s per pin, which matches Fiji’s 512 GB/s over a 4,096-bit interface. A separate SK hynix retrospective quotes around 1,600 Mb/s. The retrospective dates the AMD collaboration to 2014; SK hynix’s heritage timeline separately dates initial TSV HBM development to December 2013. No bandwidth or capacity is inferred.1
