Quad Band Memory

[Deathstar]

Last month, Kentron announced a line of modules based on its so-called Quad Band Memory (QBM) technology--an emerging scheme that promises to double the speeds of double-data-rate (DDR) SDRAM memory for PCs. Wilmington, Del.-based Kentron says its QBM technology makes use of an FET-based switching technology that boosts the speeds of DDR SDRAMs. <p>To propel the technology in the market, Kentron plans to develop QBM-based memory modules running at 3.2-gigabytes-per-second of bandwidth (400-MHz data rate) and 4.2-gigabytes-per-second of bandwidth (533-MHz data rate). At the time, the company said the modules will ship in he first quarter of 2002 <p>Anamenondas neotera gia to pos tha kathierothoun kai ipostirixtous apo tous kataskeuastes M/B.
