INTRODUCTION

     This Amendment No. 2 amends the initial Statement on Schedule 13D (the 
"Statement") and the Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 1") of 
Winbond Int'l. Corporation ("WIC"), Peaceful River Corp. ("PRC"), Pigeon 
Creek Holding Co., Ltd. ("PCH") and Winbond Electronics Corporation ("WEC") 
(collectively, "Winbond") dated May 21, 1998 and filed with the Securities 
and Exchange Commission on May 22, 1998 and June 30, 1998, respectively, with 
respect to the outstanding shares of common stock of Information Storage 
Devices, Inc. ("ISD"). This Amendment No. 2 is filed to disclose Winbond's 
submission to ISD of a non-binding proposal to acquire ISD, as well as the 
acquisition by Winbond of additional shares of common stock of ISD on the 
open market.  According to ISD's Proxy Statement for its Annual Meeting, as 
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 19, 1998, there were 
9,855,577 shares of ISD common stock, no par value, outstanding as of June 
22, 1998.  Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used but not 
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the 
Statement and Amendment No. 1. 

ITEM 4.     PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

            Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by the
            following:


                On July 13, 1998, Archie T. Yeh, the Corporate Vice President 
            and General Manager of General IC Business Group of WEC, met with 
            ISD's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, David Angel. The 
            meeting had been suggested by Winbond to address existing and 
            potential operational, technology and product collaboration 
            between the two companies, and included as additional 
            participants senior operational personnel from both companies. 
            Mr. Yeh's and Mr. Angel's discussions referenced the possibility 
            that Winbond might make an acquisition proposal at some point. No 
            specific acquisition proposals were discussed at the meeting and 
            no agreement or understanding was reached, however. Mr. Angel did 
            inform Mr. Yeh that any acquisition proposal by Winbond should be 
            submitted to investment bankers that had been retained by ISD.

                Within five days of the July 13 meeting, investment bankers 
            retained by Winbond contacted ISD's investment bankers to 
            determine whether ISD would have interest in receiving an 
            acquisition proposal from Winbond. Several conversations occurred 
            between the companies' respective investment bankers between July 
            17, 1998 and July 23, 1998.

                Mr. Angel and Mr. Yeh met yesterday.  During the meeting, Mr. 
            Yeh informed Mr. Angel that Winbond intended to propose an 
            acquisition of ISD through a cash merger in which Winbond would 
            acquire all currently outstanding ISD shares that Winbond does 
            not own for $8.25 per share and hand-delivered a letter 
            containing the proposal to Mr. Angel. Winbond's proposal is 
            non-binding and subject to a number of material conditions, 
            including the execution of definitive agreements, completion of 
            satisfactory due diligence, waiver of the application of ISD's 
            shareholder rights plan, board approval for both companies, ISD 
            shareholder approval, and compliance with customary legal 
            requirements.  Winbond has asked for a response to its proposal 
            by July 31, 1998, and ISD has not yet responded to it.

                As indicated by its July 24, 1998 proposal Winbond's present 
            intention is to attempt to acquire ISD through a negotiated 
            transaction subject to the approval of ISD's board of directors 
            and the vote of ISD's shareholders.  If Winbond's current 
            proposal is rejected by ISD's board of directors, Winbond may 
            make other proposals and may seek to acquire ISD by other means, 
            concerning which no determination has yet been made.  There can 
            be no assurance as to whether or when any other acquisition 
            proposal will be pursued, or whether any actions by Winbond will 
            result in the acquisition of ISD by Winbond.

                Subject to the factors discussed below, Winbond may continue 
            to purchase additional shares of ISD Common Stock in the open 
            market or otherwise.  Winbond intends to review on a continuing 
            basis various factors relating to its investment in ISD, 
            including ISD's business and prospects, the price and 
            availability of ISD Common Stock, subsequent developments 
            affecting ISD, other investment and business opportunities 
            available to Winbond and general stock market and economic 
            conditions.  Based on these factors, Winbond may decide to change 
            its current intentions and may determine to sell all or part of 
            its investment in ISD.
