Rambus comes with its own working memory for the first time

American Rambus is going to have working memory produced. The 25-year-old company has multiple patents on ram technologies, but has always lived off the income from licenses and lawsuits against companies such as Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron.

The Rambus blog reads that the company plans to have a new variant of DDR4 memory produced, specifically intended for servers. The Rambus RB26 ddr4 chipset should become the fastest ram technology on the market and should meet the latest jedec standard with a bandwidth of 2933Mbps. Rambus will be demonstrating the memory at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, August 18-20.

In the 1990s, Rambus filed several patents for technologies found in dynamic random access memory, or dram. However, the company wants to become less dependent on the revenue generated by ram licenses and lawsuits against manufacturers who are not interested in such a license.

For example, from SK Hynix, Rambus receives $12 million per quarter for the use of the technologies that Rambus has patented. “We have to be flexible,” Rambus chief executive Ronald Black told The Wall Street Journal. The American company will leave the production of its ram to another company.
