The inventors of this module type and holders of the patent are chief technical officer Kenneth J. Kledzik and president Jason C. Engle, both of San Clemente, California.
"This new patent further protects our intellectual property in this area of memory module design," said Engle. "To designers," continued Engle, "it means a greater variety of mixed technologies can now be used with Canopy�, a three-dimensional process that permits a variety of space-limited memory design applications. Canopy� was created in 2001 in part to help reduce thermal failures associated with stacked-chip technologies."
"The ever increasing demand for large RAM (random access memory) combined with demand for increasingly compact computer products," says Ken Kledzik, "makes this canopy-type module a viable option. Most 3-D chip-stacking alternatives require larger, more complex non-standard packaging methods. With these alternative Canopy� modules, circuit density is increased using standard DIMM packaging."
