Re: Imagine two different Timnas Sorry to be so much trouble, and thanks for your patience! I think that what I'm assuming is that you need the circuitry to do the equivalent of controlling and terminating a scsi bus. So that two channels of rambus out of a timna, instead of 1 channel, requires 32 data lines vs 16, plus double the number of control lines, ground traces, etc. And two sets of bus latches, controllers, whatever, at the Rambus chip end. Is this completely wrong? Is the "second" channel just more chips in series on the same set of traces? If that's the case, is it really a second channel? Dan
