Elpida Memory Inc. today detailed what it is claiming is the industry’s first 256Mbit DDR2 SDRAM devices that operate at 800Mbits/sec.
The devices are available in either 8-bit or 16-bit widths, and intended for use in DDR2 unbuffered dual in-line memory modules in high-end PCs. The devices underwent evaluation and have gained the support of several Taiwanese module manufacturers, Elpida reported.
“800Mbits/sec. is a major milestone for DDR2 SDRAM,” said Jun Kitano, director of technical marketing for Elpida Memory (USA), in a statement. “It is an ideal match for the latest processor front-side bus, allowing PCs to maximize data throughput at a rate that is faster than ever before possible."
The 256Mbit DDR2 devices -- part numbers EDE2508ABSE and EDE2516ABSE -- are produced on Elpida’s 0.10-micron process in 60-ball FBGA and 84-ball FBGA packages. The devices feature low, 1.85-volt operation with a burst length of 4, 8 and CAS Latency of 5.
Volume production for both devices is expected in May.
