Can CAMM Can SO-DIMMs For Cell Reminiscence?
JEDEC Is DELLighted To Announce CAMM 0.5
We first discovered about CAMM, aka Compression Hooked up Reminiscence Modules, final 12 months when Dell announced that everyone should jump onboard their proposed new cellular reminiscence design. It was a daring transfer that appears to have paid off as all members of JEDEC have signed on and we must always count on a totally purposeful CAMM 1.0 customary earlier than the tip of the 12 months. Subsequent 12 months it’s fairly doable that even Apple may undertake this new customary.
It might appear odd to exchange the tried and true cellular reminiscence design, nevertheless DDR5 SO-DIMMs are fairly difficult to design. The 332 firms which might be members of JEDEC voted unanimously to undertake CAMM going ahead, however with just a few tweaks included into Dell’s design from final 12 months. SO-DIMMs will nonetheless be round for decrease finish machines, however something with DDR5-6400 or greater might want to use CAMM.
There’s already speak of utilizing it as the usual for cellular DDR6 and by then must also be accessible in low energy modules, although LPCAMM simply doesn’t sound correct. Check out the links over at Slashdot to catch up on what we know so far.
