Description
Registered Dual In-Line Memory Module (RDIMM) in A8966298 Dell 8GB RAM
Registered Dual In-Line Memory Module (RDIMM) is a type of memory module that is commonly used in servers and workstations. RDIMMs provide additional buffering compared to Unbuffered DIMMs (UDIMMs) which helps to improve memory reliability and performance.
In RDIMMs, the memory controller sends a signal to a buffer chip on the module, which then amplifies the signal and forwards it on to the memory chips. This buffering helps to reduce electrical loading on the memory controller and improves the signal integrity of the memory bus.
A8966298 Dell 8GB RAM is a RDIMM, which means it has a buffer chip that provides additional buffering and signal integrity compared to UDIMMs. RDIMMs are typically used in systems that require large amounts of memory and/or high memory bandwidth, such as servers and workstations.
Form Factor and Pin Configuration of A8966298 Dell 8GB RAM
The A8966298 Dell 8GB RAM has a form factor of 288-pin RDIMM, which is a type of memory module commonly used in servers and high-performance computing systems. The 288-pin RDIMM form factor allows for a larger number of pins to be used for data transfer compared to other form factors, which in turn increases the memory bandwidth.
The pin configuration of the A8966298 Dell 8GB RAM is DDR4 SDRAM, which stands for Double Data Rate Fourth Generation Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory. DDR4 SDRAM is the current standard for computer memory and provides faster data transfer rates and lower power consumption compared to earlier DDR standards. The A8966298 Dell 8GB RAM has a 1.2V power supply, which is the standard voltage for DDR4 memory modules.
Latency and Timing of A8966298 Dell 8GB RAMThe A8966298 Dell 8GB RAM has a CAS latency of 17, which is the time delay between the moment when the memory controller requests data from the RAM and the moment when the data is available to be accessed. The RAM also has a timing of 17-17-17, which specifies the number of clock cycles required for various operations such as row activation, column address strobe, and write recovery time. These values play an important role in determining the overall speed and performance of the RAM. Lower latency and tighter timing values generally lead to better performance, although they also tend to come at a higher cost.
