Innovative Silicon, the developer of Z-RAM (zero capacitor DRAM) high density memory IP, has revealed that Advanced Micro Devices has contracted to purchase a Z-RAM embedded memory technology licence for potential use in its future microprocessor products. Craig Sander, Corporate Vice President of Technology Development at Advanced Micro Devices, commented: 'The dramatic increase in density offered by ISi's Z-RAM embedded memory can enable much larger on-chip microprocessor cache memories resulting in improved performance and reduced I/O power consumption'. Innovative Silicon President and CEO, Mark-Eric Jones, added: 'We are very pleased to announce that AMD has contracted to purchase a technology licence for our Z-RAM embedded memory technology'.

'We are proud to have such a prominent and successful technology company with a strong reputation for innovation select Z-RAM memory, and underline the validity of the Z-RAM approach in comparison with other, less proven technologies'.

'Working with AMD shows the increasing importance of using ultra-high-density embedded memory in the semiconductor industry as embedded memory occupies larger and larger proportions of the microprocessor and embedded processor die area'.
