SLDRAM

(Synchronous Link DRAM) An enhanced version of SDRAM memory that uses a multiplexed bus to transfer data to and from the chips rather than fixed pin settings. Similar to Rambus DRAM (RDRAM), but not proprietary, SLDRAM never came to fruition. In 1999, the SLDRAM consortium turned itself into the short-lived Advanced Memory International to support DDR SDRAM. See RDRAM, SDRAM and AMI2.

SLDRAM is a "joint effort" DRAM consortium that may be another competitor with Rambus.

Only companies that make major investments now in new equipment, technology, and personnel will be able to effectively provide virtual warehousing of SDRAMs, DDR, SLDRAM, and RDRAM memory modules as they emerge between now and the year 2000.
