$ATOM The current stock price is under pressure from macro factors like rising interest rates and concerns about the economics of AI investment, but Atomera keeps churning out patents like a machine.
This latest patent is a fairly groundbreaking one related to a new architecture for DRAM sense amplifiers. Beyond MST, patents on new DRAM structures themselves keep coming out. They're staking out patents on the new structure, and then building it so that using MST makes it even better on top of that.
In conclusion, they claim that if DRAM makers adopt this new structure, refresh intervals can be extended 5–10x, and the SIT/s (Sustained Independent Transactions per second) limitation of HBM can be overcome.
Let me explain this new structure called single-ended sense amplifiers with an easy analogy.
Each cell in DRAM memory is like a small water bucket. The problem is that this bucket keeps leaking a little. So DRAM has to go around refilling every bucket every few tens of milliseconds.
