Abstract :
MOS-RAMs are best known for their high memory capacity and their cost advantage, as compared to other random-access memories. For the semiconductor producer RAMs are the leading products for technological advancements and for the user key elements used in all kinds of computers. Therefore, dynamic RAMs amount to 20% of total MOS sales, which are estimated to be 1800 Million US $ world- wide in 1978. The status and the future developments or those memories will be the topic of this presentation.
