Spansion to use Rambus patented technologies


Thursday, January 11, 2007 Flash memory specialist Spansion Inc. have signed a five-year patent license agreement with Rambus. The royalty-based deal gives Spansion access to a broad range of Rambus patents.

Rambus said it does not anticipate revenue generated from this license agreement to be material. Terms of the agreement were not revealed.

Spansion joins a growing list of semiconductor suppliers and system manufacturers who have signed patent license agreements for various products covered by Rambus patents. Others include AMD, Elpida, Fujitsu, Qimonda, Matsushita, NEC, Renesas, and Toshiba.

Robert Melendres, executive vice president and chief legal officer at Spansion, said the license will initially be used to expand the company's range of memories targeted at cellular phone applications.

"Working with the Rambus team to secure access to their patent portfolio will provide us more design freedom as we develop next generation flash memory technology and solutions," said Melendres.
