| New 4GB Fully Buffered DIMM from Legacy Electronics Released PC design engineers and system integrators now have a new, immediately available option for a fully buffered dual in-line memory module that offers high density in a standard form factor. The 4GB DDR2 FB-DIMM from Legacy Electronics is a JEDEC-standard, pin-out DIMM offering a low-profile (1.18 inch or 30mm) PCB height in speeds ranging from PC2-3200 to PC2-5300. This means that Apple- and Intel-platform designers, and more specifically any high-speed, high-density blade server and 1U-Chassis designers, can address their applications' needs without stacking or use of dual die devices. Legacy's new 4GB FB-DIMM also provides the reliability of Advanced Memory Buffer, which replaces registers and phase lock loops used on other DIMMs. The AMB buffers the DRAM devices from the channel, and uses a high-speed, point-to-point differential interface to communicate with the controller. This process translates to increased system memory capacity, reduced memory channel pin count, and higher reliability. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Computing News :: home page |
