MOTOROLA PREPARES REPLACE TRADITIONAL FLASHPAMYATI

MOTOROLA PREPARES replace traditional FLASH-MEMORY

In place of the widely used today, Flash-memory company Motorola is preparing two new developments - SONOS and Q-flash.

According to the company, the memory technology with the floating gate transistors (floating gate) will soon exhaust its resources because of the impossibility of further reducing the size of the gate.

The first type of new memory, SONOS, is based on the composite material which consists of a layered cake scheme silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (name stands Semiconductor Oxide Nitride Oxide Semiconductor, i.e. The memory cells are nitride layer under the gate of the transistor made of polycrystalline silicon. SONOS cheaper to manufacture and requires less power for the information recording and erasing - 6 to 10 V.

Supply samples SONOS, produced by 0.18-micron process technology, Motorola is going to start at the end of 2003. Migration to 0.9 microns is scheduled for early 2004.

The second novelty, Q-flash, uses as a memory silicon nanocrystals with a diameter of about 5 nm. Q-flash has a very long and preservation of information is even smaller size and lower power consumption than the SONOS. Protype Q-flash chips will be no earlier than 2005.

WE GEFORCE FX 5800 BE TWO VERSIONS AND ULTRA 5800

We GEFORCE FX will be two versions: 5800 and 5800 ULTRA

As previously reported, Kompyulenta, the company nVidia November 18, 2002 introduced a new GPU Geforce FX. As it became known columnists online publication Inquirer, nVidia plans to release two versions of the processor - the 5800 and 5800 Ultra. Apparently, the number 5 in the chip name should reflect the fact that this chip is the fifth generation GeForce.

Representatives nVidia has not confirmed this information, and claim that the numerical codes, the company awarded the new chips will be made public only in January 2003, after the formal submission of the first graphics cards based on these processors.

About the approximate price of graphics cards based on the GeForce FX has not reported, however, as predicted by observers Inquirer, the first high-performance graphics cards based on the GPU Geforce FX 5800 Ultra will cost about $ 500, and the cards are based on the basic version of the chip Geforce FX 5800 - about $ 400.

DDR400 MEMORY WITH INTEL WILL MASS ALREADY IN THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2003

DDR400 MEMORY WITH INTEL WILL MASS ALREADY IN THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2003

Kompyulenta already wrote that the chipsets Intel Springdale, designed for Pentium 4 processors next generation will support the memory type DDR400. According to analysts DigiTimes, that judgment Intel Memory Type DDR400 can get the most widespread and become the industry standard in the second quarter of 2003.

RAM DDR400 previously seen as a transitional standard before the mass introduction of memory type DDRII, but the decision to support DDR400 Intel in its new chipsets could significantly change the situation on the market. As representatives of the manufacturers of RAM told DigiTimes, at present in most modern computer systems used memory type DDR266, and the transition to the DDRII memory standard is not expected until the second half of 2003.

While the volumes of RAM DDR400 relatively small because many companies have not started the production of this type of memory because it has not passed the approval of experts Intel. In addition, many manufacturers of memory have been engaged in the process of transition with the release of SDRAM memory on the issue of memory type DDR. Until very recently, c chipsets support DDR400 memory is released only company VIA Technologies and Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS), and these chipsets are not in great demand.

Now, however, chip manufacturers and memory modules are convinced that DDR400 has all the chances to become the industry standard RAM in 2003.

NVIDIA CHIPSET SHOWS TO CRUSH K8 PROCESSORS AMD HAMMER

NVIDIA chipset SHOWS TO CRUSH K8 Processors AMD HAMMER

NVidia Crush K8 chipset consists of a south bridge chip, which is integrated video interface controller AGP. As the director of nVidia chipset Drew Henry, because the engineers at AMD embedded memory controller, which is traditionally placed in the Northbridge chip directly into the processor itself K8, the value of the server of the bridge dropped significantly. Therefore, experts nVidia decided to do without a separate chip North Bridge and AGP controller build in Southbridge.

According to Henry, this decision will significantly accelerate the development of motherboards based on the new chipset.


Crush K8 chipset will be released on 0.15-micron process technology in the factories of Taiwan Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC).

Other manufacturers of chipsets, including the company VIA Technologies, Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) and ALi (previously - Acer Laboratories), intend to produce chipsets for the new processors AMD, consisting of both the south and north of the bridge, as well as with integrated graphics controllers . Canadian developer of graphics processor ATI Technologies also plans to produce chipsets for the platform K8. The company will also produce chipset consists of two chips, which will more quickly make changes to the server-bridge chipset, if requested by the new protocol specification of graphics AGP.

NEW DELL BLADESERVER COMPANY

NEW BLADE-SERVER OF DELL

The new rack-mount PowerEdge 1655MC uses 50% less space than a conventional server, and requires a much smaller number of communication cables. The new server is made within the strategy of Dell to introduce high-tech solutions in the Class low-end. In particular, 1655MS supports connection of the UPS in the hot swap extending up to six dual-processor modules, designed to work with RAID-SCSI-disk array and is equipped with an integrated control system.

According to representatives of Dell, the new server is 30% cheaper than traditional rack-mounted servers format 1U. In addition, 1655MS software uses Open Manage software, which allows system administrators to manage hundreds of blade-servers simultaneously. The cost of basic kit with one blade-server is 3300 U.S. dollars, the server is optimized to work with Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Red Hat Linux.


C using the PowerEdge 1655MC Dell is trying to capture the growing market for blade-servers. According to a study conducted by the corporation Gartner Dataquest, sales of these servers will grow from 85,000 units in 2002 to one million in 2006. Revenues from sales of such products in this period will be 1.6 billion dollars.
