JEDEC Is DELLighted To Announce CAMM 0.5
We first realized about CAMM, aka Compression Connected Reminiscence Modules, final 12 months when Dell introduced that everybody ought to bounce 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 should always count on a completely purposeful CAMM 1.0 commonplace earlier than the tip of the 12 months. Subsequent 12 months it’s fairly potential that even Apple would possibly undertake this new commonplace.
It could appear odd to switch the tried and true cellular reminiscence design, nevertheless DDR5 SO-DIMMs are fairly difficult to design. The 332 firms which can be members of JEDEC voted unanimously to undertake CAMM going ahead, however with a couple of tweaks integrated 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 discuss of utilizing it as the usual for cellular DDR6 and by then must also be obtainable in low energy modules, although LPCAMM simply doesn’t sound correct. Try the hyperlinks over at Slashdot to compensate for what we all know to date.
