Samsung Exhibiting Next-Generation Semiconductors, TFT-LCDs at
Comdex; Group effort showcases wide variety of leading-edige digital
technologies

LAS VEGAS, Nov 12, 1999 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Samsung Semiconductor, Inc.
will be exhibiting its leading-edge memory, TFT-LCD, MCU and System LSI
technologies at Comdex from November 15 through 19 in a Group effort
showcasing semiconductor, display, telecommunications,
electromechanics, storage, PC and digital products technologies.

Samsung Semiconductor will primarily focus on TFT-LCD displays, where
the company has consolidated its position as market and technology
leader. Samsung's leading-edge displays are noted for their large
screen size, high resolution and wide viewing angle. Products featured
include: 14.1-inch SXGA+, 15.0-inch XGA high brightness, 15.0-inch
SXGA+ and 16.5-inch SXGA+ TFT-LCD panels for notebook use; 17-inch SXGA
and 21.3-inch UXGA TFT-LCD monitors for engineering workstation and
multimedia terminal use; and a 24-inch Wide UXGA TFT-LCD monitor ideal
for financial institutions, engineering workstation and HDTV
applications.

Samsung will also highlight its technical innovation and commitment to
R&D by demonstrating complete working systems with Samsung RDRAM(R),
and PC-133 DRAMs and modules.

Samsung is demonstrating its lead in the Rambus(R) revolution with a
full display of Rambus components and modules, including two
RDRAM-based working systems in the Rambus booth on the main convention
floor. Samsung was the first semiconductor manufacturer to begin Rambus
mass production, the first with 64-, 128- and 256M-byte RIMM samples
validated by Intel, and the first with 72-, 128- and 144Mbit RDRAM
components validated by Intel.

A PC-133 SDRAM system will feature high-density 512MB and 1GB modules
assembled using Samsung's state-of-the-art 256Mb components.

Samsung Semiconductor's broad product range will also be exhibited in a
display featuring MCU products, and a demonstration of customer
Mobilink's GSM wireless single-chip baseband solution incorporating
Samsung's embedded System-on-a-Chip technology.

"I am pleased Samsung is here with such a strong technology and market
leadership story," stated Y. W. Lee, president and CEO of Samsung
Semiconductor Business. "We intend to maintain our leadership position
in memory and TFT-LCD products in 1999 and into the new millennium," he
continued.
