Stack specifications

MakerMemory manufacturer.
SK hynix1
GenerationMaker’s HBM generation designation.
HBM41
DRAM layers highDRAM dies in the stack; excludes the base die.
161
Stack capacity GBCapacity of one stack, in the maker’s GB units; not accelerator total memory.
481
Pin rate Gb/sPublished pin rate. Read with Pin qualifier; a limit is not a guaranteed operating point.
At least 111
Stack bandwidth GB/sPublished bandwidth of one stack. Read with Bandwidth qualifier. TB/s is normalized to GB/s using 1,000.

Reading notesVariant-specific context, source conflicts, historical status and unconfirmed details.
Pin rate and bandwidth are current family portfolio ratings. SK hynix put HBM4 into mass production in Q3 2025 and began mass shipments in Q2 2026. It names the 12-layer 36GB HBM4 as the stack inside NVIDIA Vera Rubin. Production of the 24GB and 48GB stacks is not inferred.1
