SSDDR, The Next-Generation DRAM-Flash Technology
Solid-State Double Data Rate (SSDDR) memory is an innovative DDR2 or DDR3 DRAM memory module containing NAND Flash chip-on-board with SATA I/II compliance/functionality. It is designed in small DIMM form factors as a way to pack more memory and solid-state storage into small space-constrained Single Board Computers (SBCs), mobile or embedded systems. We invite you to learn more about this new cost saving technology.

MEMORY MODULE POWER CALCULATOR

Virtium
Power and cooling have always been a consideration for designers using memory modules in their new system designs. Memory has become as important as the processor when it come to heat generation and how to remove it. Virtium has now made it easy for you to estimate the power consumption of memory modules by providing a power calculator that can be used to explore the affects of various DRAM module densities and speeds on the system cooling and power supply. Find out how new DDR3 DRAM technology will impact your system. Give it a try!
