You’ve heard of DRAM, HBM, probably SRAM, but RDRAM…now that was a weird one. Famously used in the Sony PS2, its RDRAM had ~3x the bandwidth of your typical high end PC. If you want more memory bandwidth in a dense die, there’s (roughly) two things you can do. You can *add* many more wires (wide+close, like hbm). Or, you can make the wires *faster* and use less of them (narrow). Rambus, the creator of RDRAM, took the second bet. It was quite contrarian, but garnered some attention from Intel as well. The main issue, among others, is that RDRAM was expensive, AND high latency. For typical PC-style workloads, random access latency dominates, so it was a tough sell. Although the PS2 was a roaring success (high-bw streaming workloads made sense), it barely lasted ~3 years in the PC market. Like many ideas, Rambus+RDRAM was arguably just way, way too early. Today, CXL memory uses many of the same initial principles! If you think about a pin-efficient, high speed link, over longer distances…well, that’s kinda just CXL. Funnily enough, Rambus still exists, and is heavily involved in CXL memory controller IP these days!

There will be a big announcement for a new RetroTINK product! Details coming Saturday August 22nd at 9:30 AM pacific. Please stay tuned!!

BlueRetro GameCube v26.08.3_LBI release with Companion v0.25. New standout feature is online updating via BBA. Currently this feature is not useful unless already on v26.08.3_LBI Works on all 3 versions of our adapter, untested on standalone dongles, but the code compiles cleanly.

A few people asked me when the next batch of the NES Hub is coming, so here's an update: I was working on a slighty improved version for batch #2. Just now I found out that the Mini-DP connectors used as Addon-Ports are obsolete. A replacement is not available yet. This will cause some delay, since I definitely want to test the new version before the production starts for batch #2. Thanks for your patience!

Our USB-C internal PSU adapter for GameCube is about ready for a release. This is not a single chip solution like other designs. We are using a MCU to help negotiate more than PD12, it actively validates the PSU can handle the correct voltage and current. It will negotiate PPS and AVS from modern supplies even if they do not support PD12. There is a MOSFET that prevents over voltage or under voltages from ever going to the GameCube and operates as a soft power button that remembers the last state with a single button press. We will also have an external version that requires no disassembly. I still need to assemble those boards and finalize the firmware for them.
