TOKYO, JAPAN, JUN 13, 2001 (CCN Newswire via COMTEX) -- Rambus Inc.
(Nasdaq: RMBS), the leading provider of high bandwidth chip-connection
technologies, released its evolutionary technology roadmap for RDRAM(R) devices
and RIMM(TM) modules during Rambus Developer Forum Japan. By combining
incremental RDRAM frequency increases to 1200MHz with wider 32 bit and 64 bit
modules, Rambus and its partners will deliver RIMM module solutions up to 9.6
GB/sec by 2005. This five-fold increase in module bandwidth exceeds the
anticipated performance requirements of PC main memory with minimal changes to
the existing RDRAM device and infrastructure.

"With the need for system memory bandwidth increasing over the next 5 years, it
is essential that DRAM architecture continue to evolve accordingly to deliver
the maximum user experience from the PC platform. Intel supports the steps that
Rambus and the RDRAM industry are taking to address the anticipated memory
demand," said Louis Burns, Vice President of Desktop Products Group of Intel.

RDRAM Devices

Joining 800MHz RDRAM devices on the long-term PC memory roadmap are two
additional frequencies, 1066MHz and 1200MHz. Initially supported by Samsung,
Toshiba and Elpida, these new timing bins will increase RDRAM performance by up
to 50% over today`s PC800 RDRAM. The new PC1066 and PC1200 RDRAM devices will
become available in volume production in 2002 and 2005, respectively.

"Samsung is committed to remaining the leader in RDRAM production with over 130
million 128Mb units expected to ship this year," said Jon Kang, Senior Vice
President Product Planning at Samsung Electronics. "We continue that leadership
position by being the first to sample PC1066 RDRAMs and are currently working
with Rambus to incorporate them onto modules."

RIMM Modules

In addition to RDRAM device frequency increases, the RIMM module width will be
increased from its present 16 bits to 32 and 64 bits. This extension effectively
doubles and quadruples the RIMM module bandwidth. Combined with RDRAM frequency
increases, Rambus has developed a PC memory roadmap that is easily scalable to
9.6 GB/s.

"The PC industry needs evolutionary solutions to fulfill future memory bandwidth
requirements. Toshiba is addressing these requirements with higher performance
RDRAM speed bins and wider 32 and 64 bit RIMM modules," said Shozo Saito,
General Manager of Toshiba`s Memory Division.

"Elpida is the most experienced RDRAM supplier and the first to validate the
256Mb RDRAM. To meet the PC memory requirements Elpida will produce higher
performance RDRAMs and wider RIMM modules," said Hidemori Inukai, Vice President
and General Manager Strategic Marketing at Elpida Inc. "We will continue to work
closely with Rambus and the industry in supporting the evolutionary RDRAM and
RIMM module roadmap."

The 16 bit, 32 bit, and 64 bit RIMM modules are expected to coexist and to ship
into different segments of the market, from low-end server and workstation to
mainstream and value desktop PC. Since there are no functional changes to the
RDRAM device, the same part can be assembled onto any width RIMM module,
enabling manufacturers flexibility in meeting customer requirements. The three
RDRAM frequency grades combined with wider RIMM modules provide flexible and
scalable solutions to system designers implementing PC memory subsystems well
beyond 2005.

Rambus Announces RDRAM and RIMM Module Roadmap Through 2005; Highest Bandwidth Devices and Modules to Address PC Memory Performance Requirements

Boston, Jun 11, 2001 (Midnight Trader via COMTEX) -- Shares of Rambus (RMBS)
have not yet managed to push above $14, and thus the downward trendline remains
in place. In addition, the stock continues to trade well below the 50-day MA,
another bearish indication. In the last few sessions, however, Rambus has neared
once again the key $14-$15 level after support at $10 once again held. Like we
said in our last note, breaking above $15 would result in an upside breakout of
the trendline, and thus could be an indication of a reversal in the trend. Until
that happens, though, the bearish sentiment remains.
