Micron Technology today announced a new 2-gigabit (Gb) 50-nanometer (nm) DDR2 memory device to support the upcoming Intel Atom platform for tablet and netbook personal computers, codenamed "Oak Trail."

The small form factor, high-density and low-power consumption of the 2Gb 50nm DDR2 makes it a suitable memory solution for the tablet PC market where size and battery life are key features.

The upcoming Intel Atom 'Oak Trail' platform is optimized specifically for tablets and sleek netbook designs.

Micron is expected to begin sampling its 2Gb 50nm DDR2 device in September 2010 with production planned for Q4 2010.
