HP and Hynix - Bringing the memristor to market in next-generation memory
By Ethan Bauley, August 31, 2010Today, HP announced a joint development agreement with Hynix Semiconductor Inc., to develop a new kind of computer memory – one that will employ memristor technology pioneered by researchers at HP Labs.
This memory, called ReRAM, holds the potential to surpass Flash in terms of affordability, total capacity, speed, energy efficiency, and endurance. And its potential doesn’t stop there. “We believe that the memristor is a universal memory technology that over time could replace Flash, DRAM, and even hard drives,” says Stan Williams, HP Senior Fellow READ MORE
