Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D
-------------------------------

Zentrum Mikroelektronik Dresden GmbH (the "Reporting Person" or "ZMD") hereby
amends, as set forth below, its Statement on Schedule 13D, filed February 13,
1998 (the "Statement"), as amended by Amendment No. 1, filed on March 22, 2000
("Amendment No. 1"), by Amendment No. 2 , filed on March 27, 2000 ("Amendment
No. 2") and by Amendment No. 3, filed on March 31, 2000 ("Amendment No. 3"),
relating to the Common Stock of Simtek Corporation, a Colorado corporation
("Simtek").  Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement, as amended by Amendment
No. 1, Amendment No. 2 and Amendment No. 3.


ITEM 4.  Purpose of the Transaction.

     The 4th and 5th paragraphs of Item 4 set forth in Amendment No. 1 (which
amended and restated Item 4 of the Statement in its entirety), as amended by
Amendment No.2 and Amendment No.3,  are hereby amended and restated as follows,
and the remainder of Item 4 as reflected in Amendment No. 1 remains in effect:

     Since March 29, 2000, ZMD has disposed of an aggregate amount of 725,000
shares of Simtek Common Stock, constituting 1.89% of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock of Simtek.  ZMD's current intent is, and continues to be, depending
on market conditions and other relevant factors, to eventually dispose of all or
substantially all of ZMD's equity interest in Simtek.  The timing of the
disposition or dispositions will depend upon market conditions, the limitations
of Rule 144, the availability of registration of ZMD's shares by Simtek, the
availability of other lawful means of disposition, and other relevant factors
and business considerations from time to time.

     Except as described above and in Amendment No. 1, ZMD has not formulated
any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the items
described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of this item.

ITEM 5.  Interest in Securities of Simtek.

     Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

          (a) ZMD owns 3,822,395 shares of Common Stock of Simtek, which is
9.99% of such class based on 38,256,589 shares of Common Stock outstanding at
May 5, 2000, as reflected in Simtek's May 12, 2000 filing with the SEC.

          (b) ZMD, through its chief executive officers, has the sole power to
direct the vote of the shares of Common Stock and ZMD, through its chief
executive officers acting with approval of the Board of Directors of ZMD, has
the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of the shares of Common
Stock.
<PAGE>

          (c) ZMD has disposed of an aggregate of around 4,725,000 shares of
Common Stock of Simtek under Rule 144, at the then current market price(s), with
transactions taking place commencing on March 17, 2000 through May 19, 2000.

          (d)  Not applicable.

          (e)  Not applicable.
