per-second Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) local area network standard
which is primarily used in network backbones and to connect high performance
workstations and servers. The Corporation has also developed, in cooperation
with systems manufacturers, a family of devices for the 10Base-T standard, which
allows transmission of data using Ethernet protocols on twisted-pair wiring,
rather than on the more expensive coaxial cable.
The Subscriber Line Interface Circuit (SLIC) and the Subscriber Line Audio-
Processing Circuit (SLAC(tm)) are an integral part of a design for digital
telephone switching equipment. The SLIC connects the user's telephone wire to
the telephone company's digital switching equipment. The SLAC is a coder/decoder
which converts analog voice signals to a digital format and back.
Non-Volatile/Volatile Memories. Memory components are used to store
computer programs and data entered prior to or during system operation. There
are two types of memory storage capability: volatile and non-volatile. Volatile
memories include Dynamic and Static Random Access Memories (DRAMs and SRAMs).
Non-volatile memories retain data when system power is shut off, while volatile
memories do not. Non-volatile memories include EPROMs and Flash memories.
The Corporation's memory products are primarily non-volatile memories used
in a wide range of applications such as PCs, workstations, peripherals, cellular
telephones, instrumentation, PBX equipment, avionics and a variety of other
equipment where programmed data storage is needed. The Corporation has
developed a family of Flash memories to address the emerging market for PC
memory cards, solid-state disks, cellular communications and networking
applications. The Corporation offers Flash memory devices up to 16 megabits in
density. During 1995, Flash memory devices contributed, and are expected to
continue to contribute in 1996, a significant and increased portion of the
Corporation's revenues and profits. The Corporation also offers a family of
CMOS EPROM devices from 64K to 4 megabits in density.
