HYUNDAI SHIPS 128Mb SDRAMS.Hyundai Electronics Industries has started commercial production of 128Mb synchronous dynamic random access memory (storage) Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory - (SDRAM, Synchronous DRAM) A form of DRAM which adds a separate clock signal to the control signals. SDRAM chips can contain more complex state machines, allowing them to support "burst" access modes that clock out a series of (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. ). The company, which stopped producing 64Mb SDRAM chips because of oversupply o·ver·sup·ply n. pl. o·ver·sup·plies A supply in excess of what is appropriate or required. tr.v. o·ver·sup·plied, o·ver·sup·ply·ing, o·ver·sup·plies in June (CI No 3,425), intends to manufacture 1.5 million 128Mb units in 1999. The Korea Times reports that the firm is looking to ramp that figure up to 6 million units in 2000 and that it expects to grab 20% of a market expected to be worth $420m by the start of next century. |
