Pseudo static RAMs are dynamic RAMs at the transistor level. They auto-refresh
and the most tricky part of designing one (besides all the ususal DRAM stuff)
is the design of the arbiter that handles simulataneous refresh and access 
requests.
I believe that Toshiba is a big player in the Pseudo-Static market and I 
understand that they are making good inroads in the slow static market.
(you get DRAM density, with the ease of the use of an SRAM).
