MICRON TECHNOLOGY TO DEMONSTRATE TWO DDR SDRAM PLATFORMS AT PLATFORM 2000
Boise, Idaho, January 25, 2000 - Micron Technology, Inc., today announced that it will demonstrate two internally-developed DDR SDRAM platforms at Platform 2000, which will be held on January 26-27, 2000, at the Silicon Valley Conference Center in San Jose. Platform 2000, a forum to highlight leading-edge computing platform technologies and strategies, will be hosted by InQuest Market Research. Micron will demonstrate a dual processor, single controller platform that has achieved industry-leading scores in independent performance benchmark testing. Micron will also display a newly developed dual processor, dual controller platform demonstrating DDR SDRAM memory in high-performance server and workstation applications. Both platforms use Micron's Samurai memory controller with a 133MHz front side bus and 266MHz DDR SDRAM main memory. With the DRAM market segmenting and DRAM technology becoming increasingly complex, Micron is focusing on ways to help its customers implement new high-performance DRAM products. "Our Integrated Products Group developed these DDR SDRAM platforms as reference designs that our customers can use in designing DDR systems," said Jeff Mailloux, Micron's Director of DRAM Marketing. "We believe that the strong performance capabilities of DDR SDRAM are showcased in these platforms." Micron Technology, Inc., and its subsidiaries manufacture and market DRAMs, very fast SRAMs, Flash, as well as other semiconductor components, memory modules, graphics accelerators and personal computer systems. Micron's common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol MU. To learn more about Micron Technology, Inc., visit its web site at www.micron.com. |
