DDR SDRAM MEMORY

DDR SDRAM Memory and SDRAM Memory

DDR SDRAM memory has 184 pins, where as SDRAM has 168 pins. DDR SDRAM Memory is a new type of SDRAM that is able to double the read / write speed of the previous generation of SDRAM memory. There are currently, PC2100 (DDR266), PC2700 (DDR333), PC3200 (DDR400), PC4200 (DDR533) These DIMMs are 184 Pin in size and are not interchangeable with older SDRAM modules.

Why buy DDR Memory?

In the last few months, the PC industry has been witness to some very exciting developments. Processors that were once considered fast (350-500MHz), have been supplanted by small squares of silicon which can easily run well over the 'magical' threshold of 1.0GHz. Still newer processors are on the drawing boards of chip designers which by the end of this year are expected to break the 2.0GHz+ barrier!

Along the way, there has been a push in the SDRAM manufacturing industry to have the present type of memory run faster, alongside the blazing processor speeds now available in the PC marketplace. The current iteration of SDRAM has begun to show its' limitations in memory bandwidth with both PC100/PC133 SDRAM platforms. By causing a bottleneck in the performance of these new processor speed demons, memory is starting to be the limiting factor to the question, "how fast can you go?"

DDRAM (Double Data Ram) evolved from the need to search out an alternative to SDRAM to free up this pressing bandwidth limitation.

 
DDR SDRAM memory is different from SDRAM memory and can only be used in systems designed specifically for DDR SDRAM memory

DDR SDRAM Modules are available in PC3200, PC2700 and PC2100.
