DDR400 Probably Will Not Get Approved As Standard!

Published by

Bill Gervasi technology director at Santa Clara, California based Transmeta Corp. and representative of the JEDEC [Solid State Technology Association] said in a presentation at JEDEC conference today that DDR400 will become a boutique memory in his opinion. He said JEDEC "may or may not" ratify DDR-400 as a standard. But the organization is well under way to develop the specifications for DDR-II, which will offer 3,200-Mbytes-per-second data transfer rates. DDR-333 - the latest JEDEC approved standard - will be the mainstream memory of 2003 and it is expected that DDR-II will step right into the gap after it. Source: Silicon Strategies
