Elpida's 4 Gigabyte DDR2 Registered DIMMs Offer Highest Density and Performance

Elpida Memory, Inc., Japan's leading global supplier of Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), today announced the availability of 4 Gigabyte DDR2 Registered Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) that offer high-density and high-performance benefits for server applications. Elpida's new modules can deliver up to 32 Gigabytes of memory in an eight slot server platform, with system data transfer rates up to 8.4 Gigabytes per second (GB/sec). They also utilize Elpida's unique stacked FBGA (sFBGA) technology to achieve a thinner module-about 30 percent thinner than the current JEDEC standard. The module thinness helps increase air flow between DIMMs and improves thermal performance in server systems.
