At this year's CeBIT, Memorysolution will show off the first engineering samples of its new DDR2 memory technology. "We are proud that we are one of the first suppliers to present this forward-looking memory technology here at the CeBIT", says Memorysolution Managing Director, Gerald Diercks. "This underscores our commitment to being a technology leader and to being able to sell our customers the newest and most powerful memory on the market".
The new memory generation offers considerably better performance than the current DDR memory with its maximum transfer rate of more than 3.2Gbyte/s.
The basis for this performance is its new architecture.
The micro MBGA chip design is also less susceptible to interference and the "on-die termination" (ODT) makes it free of signal distortion.
Signal quality is much improved over DDR1 modules, and DDR2 runs faster and is more stable than its DDR1 predecessor but it also requires new, suitable mainboards and chipsets.
The supply voltage, which has been lowered to 1.8V, has also noticeably reduced the amount of heat loss on the module.
"We are confident that we will be able to supply large quantities of DDR2 modules at the same time that the first mainboards become available", is how Gerald Diercks sums up the current development status.
"Of course, it goes without saying that these new high-performance modules will meet the strict JEDEC specifications and come with a ten-year guarantee just like all takeMS products".
