New TI 64M synchronous DRAM operates at Intel PC 100 specification March 31, 1998 M2 PRESSWIRE : Samples of a 64-megabit (64M) synchronous DRAMs (SDRAMs) for Intel's PC 100 specification are now available from Texas Instruments (TI). The PC 100- compliant 64M SDRAMs offer increased performance for file servers, workstations and high-volume desktop personal computers (PCs) without increased system size. PC 100 is the new high-speed standard for synchronous memory interface on computer motherboards. "Performance demands are pushing original equipment manufacturers to offer systems with large amounts of very high-speed memory. Yet they must maintain low costs," said Ramesh Gidwani, TI's vice president of worldwide memory marketing. "TI's early compliance to the PC 100 specification with first 16M and now 64M SDRAMs will enable OEMs to meet these requirements with greater ease. In addition to PCs, TI's new 64M device is particularly well suited for use in the registered dual in-line memory modules, or DIMMs, required for high-performance servers and workstations." As the market for PC 100-compliant SDRAMs develops, TI will continue to develop other higher-density technologies that address customer needs and cater to specific market segments. TI's PC 100 64M SDRAMs will be available in x4, x8 and x16. Part numbers are TMS664414, TMS664814 and TMS664164 respectively. All three configurations are based on the same 0.28-micron manufacturing process used for the 16M products TI announced in November 1997. Engineering samples are available now. Production samples are scheduled to be available in 2Q98 with production ramping scheduled for the middle of 1998. The device will be available in 400-mil, 54-pin thin small outline package (TSOP) and 168-pin DIMMs. Both are JEDEC-standard.
