Rambus Inc. has announced the latest version of its high-bandwidth XDR memory interface technology, XDR2, which uses a micro-threaded DRAM core and circuit enhancements that enable data rates starting at 8-GHz frequency switching, five times faster than today's fastest GDDR graphics DRAM products.
In order to achieve high bandwidth efficiency and data rates of 8GHz and beyond the XDR2 memory interface incorporates, amongst other things, a 200-millivolt differential signaling system that provides superior common mode noise rejection, Rambus claimed.
"XDR2 is our latest iteration of the XDR DRAM architecture and will help 3D games and graphics-intensive applications realize the high performance potential that users demand," said Laura Stark, vice president of the Platform Solutions Group at Rambus, in a statement.
The XDR2 memory interface is available for licensing and could be shipping in products by 2007, the company said.
