Dataram Introduces 100MHz Memory for Compaq AP200 Workstations.PRINCETON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 20, 1998--Dataram Corporation (AMEX AMEX See: American Stock Exchange : DTM DTM dermatophyte test medium. ) a leading provider of gigabyte memory upgrades for high-performance workstations and network servers, today introduced 100MHz memory for Compaq Computer Corporation's new line of AP200 Professional Workstations. The AP200, the newest offering in Compaq's Affordable Performance line of Windows/NT(R)-based workstations, features Intel's most powerful 350MHz and 400MHz Pentium(R) II processors and up to 384MB of 100MHz ECC (1) (Error-Correcting Code) A type of memory that corrects errors on the fly. See ECC memory. (2) (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) A public key cryptography method that provides fast decryption and digital signature processing. SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) A type of dynamic RAM (DRAM) memory chip that has been widely used since the late 1990s. SDRAM chips eliminated wait states by dividing the chip into two cell blocks and interleaving data between them. . Dataram's memory for the AP200 workstations is available in two capacities. The DRQAP200/64 is a 64MB capacity and the DRQAP200/128 is a 128MB. Both are available for immediate shipment and are fully compatible with Compaq's product offerings. Assembled and tested in Dataram's multi-million dollar manufacturing facility, the memory upgrades utilize the industry's highest quality 125MHz 64Mbit Synchronous DRAMs and exceed Intel's stringent PC-100 specification. List Prices are as follows: Compaq P/N (Part/Number) Common shorthand for part number.

"According to Compaq, AP workstations are 'ideally suited for mainstream computer-aided design (CAD), architectural engineering and construction (AEC AEC US Atomic Energy Commission Noun 1.

We certainly expect to see many of these machines being loaded up with memory as applications push the machines' performance. Dataram is making significant investments in manufacturing technology, including three DEK265 high-end stencil printers, as we ramp up to meet the demand for 100MHz SDRAM memory products used in this class of workstations."
