Jim, From what I read the experts said that the Rambus oatent was valid as filed for muxed busses. The judge then made the same interpretation as in the USA that in operation DDR was not multiplexed. The use of various traces to send setup information was not muxing as it as not recurrent as the Rambus use of muxing was. Muxing or multiplexing in common useage is recurrent use of the same traces for addressing different things, like 7 segment readouts or different chips in a memory array. Looks like Rambus struck out there too as the US ruling assumes the role of a precedent. In truth the USA ruling is quite correct. DDR does not operate muxed like rambus is. Now rambus will wiggle and wiggle and scream etc but the truth is the truth. Remember patent attorney/engineers have a vested interest in the Rambus patent being upheld. Looks like the judge took that into account. As experts they must not know much about muxing if they come to that conclusuion Bill
