Look, we get it, you want DRAM that behaves like flash, flash that behaves like DRAM, and everything in between -- speedy computer memory that doesn't lose its data when the power goes off, and lasts for years on end. Well, it looks there's a new challenger about to [url=http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/27/ibm-makes-racetrack-memory-breakthrough-which-could-come-in-han/]enter that ring[/url] -- double floating-gate field effect transistors, currently in prototype form at North Carolina State University. Whereas the single floating-gate variety is currently responsible for the flash memory in your USB keys and [url=http://www.engadget.com/tag/SSD/]SSDs[/url], the second floating gate lets bits of data stay in an active, ready state, but the computer can also apply a higher voltage to "freeze" them in place. Since the memory can switch between static and dynamic modes in a single cycle and the data never disappears in between, researchers imagine the new tech could lead to instant-on computers and power-saving techniques that shut down idle memory banks. That's the consumer take, at least -- find the technical deep dive at our more coverage link.

in simple.....we are using a single gate transistors as of now...which can only process the bits at one time....but with floating gate...we can storeup and speedup or freeze the bit rate....so that data transfer rates can be increased.... sCh_elmodance2

if the chip board is USB1.1 present rate is 12mbits/s....it might not change becoz its outdated..

USB2.0 is 480Mbits/s  so it may get boosted to 1000Mbits/s

USB3.0 still under research.....they are already out there..but i hav eno idea how much they are supporting...
