The Crosstie Random Access Memory (CRAM). Part I. The Concept and Initial Studies.

Abstract

This is the first annual technical report of progress toward a crosstie random access memory. This marks a recent change in direction from the previously studied serial access memory. The more pertinent information learned from the serial memory approach which applies to the CRAM is repeated here. However, previous reports contain much additional important information and can be obtained by writing to the authors. It was realized at NSWC that the crosstie memory elements could be reorganized into a random access memory and that this approach would eliminate some propagation problems which resisted easy resolution. At the same time, a much higher performance memory would result with higher expected reliability. Consequently, efforts at NSWC are being concentrated on the CRAM.
