The JEDEC Solid State Technology Association (JEDEC) has officially adopted a new RAM form factor much thinner than today's industry standard, which could be set to give your next laptop a much ...

This is the world's first large-scale study of RAM errors in the field. It looked at multiple vendors, DRAM densities and DRAM types including DDR1, DDR2 and FB-DIMM. Every system architect and ...

So why do we need CAMM anyway? Dell’s Schnell said that SO-DIMM, or Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module, is headed for a glass ceiling within a generation of design. SO-DIMMs, which were ...

Goodbye, SO-DIMM: Memory overseer JEDEC will formally adopt the “CAMM Common Spec” as the next RAM module standard for laptops. JEDEC, the memory group that homologates RAM standards ...

Here’s how it works. The latter board included SO-DIMM (small outline dual in-line memory module) slots as a way to save space due to the large size of the LGA 2066 socket. It's not the only ...

RAM has used DIMM and SO-DIMM connectors for decades, and Dell might convince the industry to transition to CAMM. Because Dell patented CAMM, worries spread that it would remain proprietary and ...

It won’t be backward compatible, so if you’re planning to upgrade an existing computer, avoid this. DIMM (dual in-line memory module) is a term used to describe RAM form factor. Most of the ...

Both DDR2 and DDR also have shortened-DIMM variants, although these versions also use different connectors to each other. As such, DDR2 chips cannot be used in the memory slots of a machine ...
