According to reports in EE Times, Sinclair Radionics has developed wafer-scale, serial-access memory with battery backup using a 12-year-old technique to connect low-power NMOS dynamic RAM cells in a redundant logic structure. Sinclair Radionics plans to bring these to market during 1985. Plans call for a 4-in square, 1-in thick, 1 Megabyte memory with battery backup. EE Times suggests that the price could be as low as $250–competing strongly with conventional disks.
