Reputed chip set delay could slow Rambus launch By Mark Hachman Electronic Buyers' News SAN FRANCISCO -- Intel Corp. chip sets supporting the new 800-megahertz DRAM interface developed by Rambus Inc. will be delayed until at least the third quarter, according to a prominent Wall Street analyst. Mark Edelstone, an analyst with Morgan Stanley Dean Witter here, issued a report in which he stated that a version of the Intel 820 or "Camino" chip set had suffered "upwards of a three-month delay" from the scheduled introduction date in June. Among other features, the Intel 820 is the first to include an interface to Direct Rambus DRAM, the memory standard promoted by Mountain View, Calif.-based chip designer Rambus. According to Edelstone, two versions of the 820 will be produced: the first will include an interface to 600-MHz Direct RDRAM and will ship in June as originally planned. The second, designed to connect to the higher-performance 800-MHz Direct RDRAM, will be delayed because DRAM vendors have had difficulty manufacturing the higher-speed parts. ............cut..............
