same things over a year ago. From the SI thread with message numbers.
"19272" bilow I believe that DDR SDRAM is at about the same stage of development as the Direct Rambus is. That is, samples are available, and manufacturers are starting to turn up the volume. Several DRAM makers are supposedly in full production of DDRs, but they are still on allocation, and will remain that way for a while. By the way, if DDRs were not going to be successful, they would be easy to get right now, given the number of makers producing them...
"19211" bilow Amusing side note: The SSTL2 spec requires that the internal positive supply voltage of SSTL2 compliant parts be no greater than the I/O supply voltage. I am not sure why this requirement is there, and the DDR makers probably aren't either, as most of them violate it.
"19077" bilow So lack of a JEDEC standard doesn't slow down use of a memory by very much. It may seem complicated to someone who doesn't live and breath memory, but for engineers, this is not a big deal. (We use stuff like this to give lame excuses to management on why we are missing the schedule for a project. Shhh! :)
