| Viking InterWorks Ships 576MB RDRAM NexMod Viking InterWorks, Inc. has announced it is currently shipping a 576MB Rambus RDRAM NexMod based on 288Mb RDRAM technology. Viking InterWorks' VRNR512ETx16xx, a 128Mx18 RDRAM NexMod, is built using 16 CMOS 288Mb RDRAM devices. This multi-tiered NexMod measures 1.1" by 3.15", while maintaining the existing NexMod footprint. Development for this 576MB NexMod was initiated to address the gap left in the market following the recent end-of-life of the 576Mb RDRAM device. Viking InterWorks' NexMod product family addresses the needs of customers designing space-constrained systems using the Intel IXP2805 network processor. By maintaining electrical compatibility and Rambus channel specifications, Viking InterWorks has ensured that existing system designs can be upgraded with minimal or no redesign of the host system. Viking InterWorks continues to support a family of RDRAM modules, including NexMod and SoRIMMs in densities ranging from 72MB to 576MB. Additionally, this module family is fully RoHS complaint (Restriction of Hazardous Substances), meeting the European Union's Directive (2002/95/EC) that requires the removal of certain hazardous substances, including lead, from electronic components, products and assemblies by July 1, 2006. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
