Well, the 8th out of 10 memory monsters signed with Rambus
today, leving only Infineon and Micron as orfans.
DDR will be RAMBUS inside
here is a article if anyone is interested.........
LOS ALTOS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 13, 2001--Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. and Rambus Inc. signed a patent license agreement for SDRAM controllers and Double Data Rate (DDR) controllers that directly interface with these types of memory. Matsushita, a leading controller manufacturer in Japan and supplier for the consumer industry worldwide, is using Rambus' SDRAM and DDR controller licensee.
Well known for its Panasonic brand,(as well as Hitachi) Matsushita is a worldwide leader in the development and manufacture of digital electronics products for a wide range of consumer, business, and industrial needs, with recorded consolidated sales of $68.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000. In addition, Matsushita is ranked among the top worldwide semiconductor companies with revenues exceeding $3.2B in 1999, according to Gartner Dataquest.
Matsushita joins a growing list of semiconductor suppliers who have agreed to sign a patent license agreement. Seven other companies, Samsung, NEC, Toshiba, Hitachi, Oki, Elpida, and Mitsubishi Electric Corp have signed SDRAM and DDR controller and memory license agreements with Rambus.
Under the licensing agreement, the royalty rates for controllers that directly interface with DDR SDRAM are greater than the RDRAM compatible rates. The agreement also includes royalties for controllers that directly interface with SDRAM, as well as a license fee for the entire agreement. The agreement is effective for shipments of licensed products by Matsushita beginning October 1, 2000.
