Hi all; Fujitsu DDR/SDRAM/RDRAM chip/DIMM/RIMM count. FUJITSU This ancient PDF file from Fujitsu says it all: Sales Team, The new fiscal year will bring some significant developments in our memory strategy. We will ship SDRAM PC133 in volume and build on the foundations already laid for DDR SDRAM; for example, the 128M and 256M devices will be launched. We will begin to ship production volumes of DDR SDRAM to customers in the high-end Computing segment, the Networking segment, as well as those in the Multimedia and Graphics segments. The FCRAM (Fast Cycle RAM) will also begin shipping, and given the high level of interest from customers with a need for this low latency DRAM, I suspect this will be one of our most significant product launches for quite some time! fujitsumicro.com Anyone doubting that the x32s are primarily for graphics purposes, (and were therefore the first to hit the market,) can read this app note from Fujitsu: fujitsumicro.com Anyway, Fujitsu shows two, x32 DDR SDRAM devices, which, in addition to the usual DDR SDRAM functions, also do FCRAM: (1.1M) fujitsumicro.com (1.3M) 133.164.254.164 (small) fujitsumicro.com By the way, I hate downloading data sheets from Fujitsu, they are hard to find sometimes, so I prefer some of the other guys. IBM is a favorite, for example, but they are exiting the memory business, except for embedded. -- Carl

DDR memory gets Infineon, Samsung, Via boost Bob Eminian, a VP for Samsung Semiconductors, said: "Because of the existing PC133 SDRAM infrastructure, and the use of the same packaging and processing technologies, DDR 266 presents no significant investment in manufacturing facilities. This means that it will be a simple transition to volume production of DDR SDRAM parts and PC2100 memory modules for the PC market, which we should expect to see in 2H'00." © theregister.co.uk

Carl, The other memory makers are not so pretty for Rambus. Here I continue with the memory makers, complete, as usual, with links: LOL! Great, you picked Hitachi for your next example. Let me see, who was it again that Rambus was suing again for not having met any single milestone in their RDRAM development schedule? And for not even showing up at the meetings to discuss issues? Hmmmmm. Their name is right on the tip of my tongue. Let's see, I think the name starts with an 'H' maybe. I know! I know! It's Hitachi! Nice example. Dave
