Memory buffer devices meet Intel specs
IDT's advanced memory buffer (AMB) devices have passed the Intel Corporation validation process and are available to ship in volume
IDT is the first AMB vendor in the industry to achieve this milestone. Enabling fully buffered dual inline memory module (FB-DIMM) solutions, AMB devices help increase the speed and memory capacity of servers and workstations, resulting in improved data-processing capabilities. Integrated onto an FB-DIMM, the IDT AMB devices handle the buffering, collection and distribution of data for each DIMM in a system, thus serving as an essential building block for next-generation, high-speed servers and workstations.
