A Samsung spokeswoman said the company, flagship unit of South Korea's Samsung Group [SAGR.CN], planned to raise monthly output of 128 and 144-megabit Rambus DRAM chips to around 1.5 million from 100,000 at present. She said the mass production would begin sometime between October and December, but declined to give a specific timeframe. The chips, also called the Direct Rambus DRAMs, adopt a high-speed memory technology format that Rambus Inc (Nasdaq:RMBS - news) developed and licensed to major computer memory chip makers.
