Abstract

Pinnacle leverages state-of-the-art technologies to establish a low-cost, high-performance single-chip memory controller. The chip uses IBM's Memory Expansion Technology system architecture, which more than doubles the installed main memory's effective size without adding significant cost or degrading performance.
