Elpida Memory, Inc. has announced that its 512 Mbit DDR2 SDRAM module for high-end server applications has performed at a data rate of 533 Mbits/s for the first time in an Intel server. The part will be ready for volume production by this summer.

Elpida submitted its 512 Mit DDR2 Unbuffered DIMM module to Intel Corp. to test it in a real prototype system. "The DDR2 DRAM actually operated at 533 Mbits/s with a 1.8V power supply in the Intel machine," said an Elpida spokeswoman.

Elpida had developed special circuit technology that realizes a maximum data rate of 1Gbits/s per pin and has verified its operation in a 512 Mbit SDRAM using a 1.8-V power supply.

Elpida is now developing DDR2 SDRAM parts to be compliant with the PC2-5400 standard which specifies for 667 Mbits/s operation.
