Re:Memory access time requirements



Ok, I looked in the manual in the section on memory and it states that
one of the requirements is that the memory have 120ns access time or
better-
I just bought 4 simms and the package has 60ns written on it- now I am
worried that they may not work properly but I am not sure if the 60ns
written on the label refers to the access time or not- anyone have a
clue?

Oops, ok, I just called the store and they said that the 60ns refers to
the speed or refresh rate of the chip itself- so, if the access time
needs to be 120ns and the chip refreshes at 60ns- then the 60ns chips
exceed the requirement- the chip will refresh and be available for
access every 60ns- twice as fast as the minimum requirement-

Just thought someone might find that interesting!
