______
Elpida Memory and Rambus jointly introduced a 512Mb 4.8GHz XDR-structure DRAM that delivers a data transfer speed of 9.6GB per second for high-performance applications such as high-definition TV (HDTV), game console, PC, server and workstation.

Fabricated on Elpida's 70nm process, this device (Part number: EDX5116ADSE-5E-E) is organized in eight-banks (x16/x8/x4 programmable), and with a 9.6GB/s data transfer rate delivers six times the peak bandwidth of industry-standard DDR2-800 memory devices, the companies detailed. A single XDR DRAM device operating in x16 mode achieves a data transfer rate of 9.6GB/s. In comparison, it requires six DDR2-800 x16 devices to achieve an equivalent data rate, the companies highlighted.
