In the interest of all things “green” and with server energy
consumption ever increasing, there is a great desire to lower
power consumption where possible, especially as energy
costs continue to soar. Noting these trends, Samsung Semiconductor’s
latest DDR2 memory dual-inline memory module
(DIMM) enables servers to score an ace in the low-power
department.
These fully buffered modules offer between 1 Gbyte and 8
Gbytes of capacity and provide up to 50% power savings at 1.55
V. According to the company, they’re also the highest-density
low-power DDR2 memory available. “By combining a 2-Gbit
chip density with a 1.55 voltage using 60-nm class technology,
we are delivering a tremendous value proposition to server
OEMs,” said Kevin Lee, vice president, technical memory
marketing, Samsung Semiconductor. “Samsung’s 2-Gbit-based
DDR2 memory devices offer the major energy savings that
most IT managers are seeking.”
