T-RAM, short for "Thyristor RAM" or "thyristor random-access memory", is a new type of DRAM computer memory invented and developed by T-RAM Semiconductor, which departs from the usual designs of memory cells, combining the strengths of the DRAM and SRAM: high speed and high volume. This technology, which exploits the electrical property known as negative differential resistance and is called Thin-Capacitively-Coupled-Thyristor^[1], is used to create memory cells capable of very high packing densities. Due to this, this memory is highly scalable, and already has a storage density that is several times higher than found in conventional six-transistor SRAM memory. It is expected that the next generation of T-RAM memory will have the same density as DRAM.
It is assumed that this type of memory will be used in the next-generation processors by AMD, produced in 32nm and 22nm ^[2], replacing the previously licensed but unused Z-RAM technology.

this might be very helpfull to amd as it trys to beat the i7's and sandy brdge. 

im thinking it will beat the i7 4 cores, mabey the 6 core i7, but sandy will beat it unless amd can get 8 mods/16 cores.  but mabey this new memory will free up space so they can get 8 cores in the chip sence, form what i understand it is high gig low space memory.
