It was all done for our smartphones, reduce the brightness, turn off the geolocation, its automatic synchronization and care taken multitasking to save some battery. Similarly for its laptops, MP3 etc.. In other words, every day our terminals need to be recharged. In the morning you can thank NEC Corporation and Tohoku University have discovered a new type of memory that can multiply 5 to 10 times your independence!
This chip has low power characteristics. Indeed, NEC Tohoku University and find ways to improve spintronic integrated circuits, a science combining electronics and magnetism. Memory will be more dense and powerful. This will store data non-volatile, that is to say that information is retained even without power, and it will be remembered thanks to the magnetic polarities. This means that you will consume standby "zero energy", energy is sent directly to the relevant cells while ignoring those unused to the present moment.
If you did not know, the standard memories consume a lot of energy because of their circuit requiring that the current passes through each state change. This discovery could revolutionize the world of electronics and especially mobile technologies: smartphones, tablets etc.. If you want to learn, a document is available explaining in more detail the operation of the process.
