Description
Memory Type and Form Factor
Memory type and form factor are two important aspects of computer memory modules. Memory type refers to the technology used to store data in the memory, while form factor refers to the physical design and dimensions of the memory module.
Memory type can vary widely depending on the generation of the memory and the intended use of the computer system. The M393B2G70BH0-CMA Samsung memory module uses DDR3 SDRAM technology, which is a type of synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) commonly used in server and high-performance computing systems.
The form factor of a memory module determines its physical dimensions and how it connects to the computer system. The M393B2G70BH0-CMA Samsung memory module uses a 240-pin DIMM form factor, which is a type of dual inline memory module (DIMM) commonly used in server and high-performance computing systems.
DIMMs come in various form factors, with different numbers of pins and physical dimensions. Other common form factors include small outline DIMMs (SODIMMs) used in laptops and other small form factor systems, and registered DIMMs (RDIMMs) which use a buffer chip to help manage large memory capacities.
Voltage and Power Consumption
Voltage and power consumption are two important considerations when selecting memory modules for a computer system. They can impact system stability, compatibility, and overall power consumption.
Voltage refers to the amount of electrical energy required to power the memory module. The M393B2G70BH0-CMA Samsung memory module uses a standard DDR3 SDRAM voltage of 1.5 volts. However, it is important to note that some DDR3 memory modules use a lower voltage of 1.35 volts, which can offer improved power efficiency and reduced heat generation.
Power consumption refers to the amount of electrical energy that the memory module consumes while in use. The power consumption of the M393B2G70BH0-CMA Samsung memory module is typically around 3.9 watts, which is relatively low compared to other high-performance memory modules.
Low power consumption is desirable in computer systems, as it can help to reduce overall system power consumption and heat generation. This is particularly important in server and high-performance computing environments, where large numbers of memory modules can consume significant amounts of power.
In addition to power consumption, it is also important to consider the thermal management of memory modules. The M393B2G70BH0-CMA Samsung memory module features a heat spreader to help dissipate heat and maintain optimal operating temperatures. Proper thermal management can help to improve memory performance and lifespan.
Serial Presence Detect (SPD) Information
Serial Presence Detect (SPD) is a technology used in memory modules that provides information about the memory module to the computer system. This information includes details about the memory type, capacity, speed, and timing settings.
The M393B2G70BH0-CMA Samsung memory module includes SPD information that can be accessed by the computer system’s BIOS during boot-up. This information is stored in a small EEPROM chip on the memory module itself, which is accessed via a serial interface.
The SPD information for the M393B2G70BH0-CMA Samsung memory module includes details such as the memory type (DDR3 SDRAM), capacity (16GB), and speed (1866MHz). It also includes information about the timing settings, including CAS latency (CL13) and other timing parameters.
The SPD information is important for ensuring that the computer system can properly detect and configure the memory module for optimal performance. The BIOS uses the SPD information to determine the correct timing settings and to ensure that the memory module is operating within its specified parameters.
In addition, the SPD information can also be used to troubleshoot issues with memory modules. If a memory module is not functioning properly, the SPD information can provide important details about the module’s specifications and help to identify potential issues with compatibility or configuration.
