ISSI to Supply RLDRAM(R) 3 Memory
November 22 2010 - 9:00AM
Integrated Silicon Solution, Inc. (Nasdaq:ISSI), a leader in
advanced memory solutions, today announced that it is working with
Micron Technology, Inc. to become an alternate supplier of Micron's
third-generation reduced-latency DRAM (RLDRAM®3 memory). RLDRAM 3
memory will add to ISSI's growing family of networking products.
RLDRAM 3 memory provides a long-term solution for the
high-bandwidth, reduced-latency memory requirements that are being
driven by networking standards such as 100 Gigabit Ethernet
(100GbE).
The IEEE recently ratified the P802.3ba standard for 100GbE to
help enterprise customers and service providers address their
requirements for greater bandwidth. This bandwidth demand is being
driven by applications such as cloud computing, and Internet-based
video services such as IPTV, Video on Demand and telepresence. In
order to support the high line rates of these applications,
high-bandwidth and reduced-latency memory is required.
RLDRAM 3 memory provides data rates up to 2133Mb/s and the
industry's lowest random access latency with a tRC of sub
10-nanoseconds. Additionally, a Multibank Write feature enables
RLDRAM 3 to meet sub 2.5ns READ tRC. Greater energy efficiency is
also realized through familiar 1.2V IO and 1.35V core voltage
levels.
"Extended product design and life cycle support are important
criteria for the networking segment," said Bruce Franklin, senior
business development manager for networking and storage at Micron.
"ISSI has been successful in maintaining product longevity for
meeting customers' long-term design cycles, which makes them a good
choice for supplying RLDRAM 3 memory."
ISSI's major networking customers have shown a tremendous amount
of interest in ISSI as an alternative supplier for RLDRAM 3 memory.
"By working closely with Micron we will be able to service our
customers' requests to provide RLDRAM 3 memory. We are excited to
be able to address our customers' demands for a high-bandwidth,
reduced-latency memory that is being driven by networking standards
such as 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE)," said Pat Lasserre, ISSI
director of strategic marketing.
