In addition to sharing state-of-the art technology for developing SRAMs, this agreement ensures that both companies will develop a common product specification that will provide compatible, multisourced products for their customers.
Cypress and NanoAmp will integrate the resulting technology into their respective product offerings, which each company will develop and market according to their own production schedules.
"This agreement further demonstrates our commitment to the SRAM market", said Mario Martinez, director of strategic marketing of the Memory Products Division for Cypress.
"Our collaborative effort will enable both companies to have products that will set a price/performance standard for wireless communications memory.
With the combination of manufacturing capabilities and new technology, this joint effort will provide our customers with compatible and multi source products".
"This co-operative effort with Cypress is one more step in NanoAmp's goal to provide the communications industry with optimal-performance memory", said Mike Vincent, director of strategic marketing at NanoAmp.
"Cypress and NanoAmp now are in stronger positions by collaborating on high-end memories, as it will enable each company to further develop its own products based on a uniform technology".
Samples will be available the second quarter of 2002 and production quantities are expected to ship in the third quarter of 2002.
Cypress and NanoAmp will price their products independently.
