| Kingston Launches Fully Buffered DIMM Memory Modules Kingston Technology Company, Inc. has announced the release of its new line of Fully Buffered DIMM memory modules (FB-DIMM). Kingston made an early and strategic decision to commit major resources to support next generation memory technology like FB-DIMM. Kingston's FB-DIMM modules are a high-speed, high-density memory solution for related technology workstation and server platforms. Kingston's FB-DIMMs will offer memory flexibility and more expansion options, opening new horizons in memory technology. Kingston's FB-DIMMs resolve the DDR2 memory speed vs. capacity bottleneck and comply with JEDEC standards. FB-DIMM memory architecture allows up to six memory channels with each channel supporting up to eight dual-rank memory modules and allows for two channels to simultaneously read and write in concurrent transactions. Already a strategic FB-DIMM supplier to major OEMs, Kingston's FB-DIMMs provide a solution to many signal integrity and quality concerns. Benefits of using Kingston's FB-DIMM technology on high-end server include scalability, flexibility, and higher capacity while the same new technology will increase speed and performance. Kingston engineers have developed special boards and test-programs that are used to conduct "parametric" and characterization testing on high-end Agilent testers to ensure that FB-DIMMs are functional and comply with specifications. Kingston FB-DIMM Features and Specifications: * Tested at 533 MHz for optimal performance * 1.8 Volts operation * Operational enhancements to increase memory performance, efficiency and timing margins * Latency timings: 4-4-4 * Memory kits (modules) up to 2 GB. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
