Tokyo – Renesas Technology Corp. has developed a new SRAM memory cell structure that combines SRAM and DRAM technologies. The device is about half the size of a conventional SRAM cell, but still has ...

Envisioning an entirely new class of “consumer DRAM” for handheld Internet appliances, Elpida Memory Inc. is mulling a design it said could replace SRAM in cell phones and other wireless mobile ...

Amorphous oxide semiconductors like IGZO (indium gallium zinc oxide) offer acceptable carrier mobility with very low leakage.

Chipmakers are beginning to incorporate multiple types and flavors of DRAM in the same advanced package, setting the stage for increasingly distributed memory but significantly more complex designs.

The type of memory a designer selects for an embedded project drives overall system operation and performance, so obviously this is a very important decision. Whether the system runs on batteries or ...
