Abstract
Each new generation of DRAMs has been found to require increasing need for time to transfer the initial set of operational components to large volume production. Several years is now the norm for the current generation of 64Ks. What are the factors which give rise to this phenomenon and what are the implications in the trends for the future . . . It is clear that there are many diverse approaches in architecture, circuits and processes, and also user requirements diverging from the standard functional specifications. One now questions which way industry will go. On a long term basis, it is possible that the DRAMs,as presently structured, are approaching fundamental limits and will be superceded. If this is so, what will we have as a successor... Panelists will discuss these topics and project roads that may be taken.
