C|Net has written a story on the launch of Redwood from Rambus:
The Los Altos, Calif.-based memory chipmaker has engineered an interconnect technology called Redwood that lets semiconductors with proximity exchange data at rapid rates. While Redwood performs the same functions as industry standards, including HyperTransport (developed by Advanced Micro Devices) or Rapid I/O, Rambus says that it outruns their speed.
Redwood can transfer data at 6.4GHz, while the current version of HyperTransport goes up to 1.6GHz, according to Rich Warmke, director of marketing for Rambus. Still, a new version of HyperTransport is expected in 2004 that will likely be faster.
ExtremeTech is also running a story on Redwood. In similar news, x-bit labs has taken a look at Quad Band Memory from Kentron.
