— -- Samsung Electronics, the world's largest memory chip maker, said this week that the global shift to a speedier computer memory chip, DDR2 (double data rate, second generation), is ...

This was supposed to be the year that a speedier new dynamic RAM technology moved into the mainstream: a technology that could lower power consumption while increasing data speeds. But the technology, ...

Since its launch in January 2006, the only thing that has been publicly known about former AMD CTO Fred Weber's new venture is its name: MetaRAM. Clearly, the stealth-mode company was working on ...

DDR2 memory has been the mainstream over the last 3 years. Intel first brought DDR2 into the market when it launched its 9xx series of Express chipsets. These saw DDR2 hitting only 533MHz; originally ...

When looking to upgrade your PC, RAM is one of the first places to look. More RAM reduces the amount the page file is used, speeding up programs and allowing you to run more applications ...

With the launch of their 900 series chipsets, and LGA775 based Pentium 4 processors, Intel introduced the use of DDR2 system memory on the desktop. DDR1 system memory had been the standard for quite a ...

There is talk that DDR2 memory is nearing the end of its life, and while this could be true to a certain extent, I believe it to be more of the opposite. While DDR3 is on the horizon and will take ...

In this article we will be exploring the differences between DDR memory and DDR2 memory and also explaining a bit about the technology behind the two. Firstly, DDR stands for Dual Data Rate and is the ...

These design guidelines provide the best practices for DDR and DDR2 SDRAM custom memory interface implementation in Stratix III and Stratix IV FPGAs. Figure 1 shows the design flow that is required ...
