Kingston Launches Fully Buffered DIMM Memory Modules
Kingston FB-DIMMs Offer Cutting-Edge Solutions, Driving the Market to a New Standard by Breaking the
16GB-Memory Barrier
Hsinchu, Taiwan – (April 12, 2006) –Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the independent worldwide leader in memory
products, today announced the release of its new line of Fully Buffered DIMM memory modules (FB-DIMM). As the leading
independent manufacturer of memory modules, Kingston made an early and strategic decision to commit major resources to
support next generation memory technology like FB-DIMM thus becoming a leading manufacturer and supplier of FB-DIMM
memory to Intel and the industry.
Kingston’s FB-DIMM modules are a high-speed, high-density memory solution for related technology workstation and server
platforms. Kingston’s FB-DIMMs will offer memory flexibility and more expansion options, opening new horizons in memory
technology. Kingston’s FB-DIMMs resolve the DDR2 memory speed vs. capacity bottleneck and comply with JEDEC standards.
FB-DIMM memory architecture allows up to six memory channels with each channel supporting up to eight dual-rank memory
modules and allows for two channels to simultaneously read and write in concurrent transactions.
Already a strategic FB-DIMM supplier to major OEMs, Kingston’s FB-DIMMs provide a solution to many signal integrity and quality
concerns. “FB-DIMM architecture increases server memory capacity from 8 GB to 192 GB at a high speed based on a 4GB-module
configuration, a twenty-four-fold increase.” said Scott Chen, Vice President, APAC Business Development, Kingston. “In addition
to higher capacity, FB-DIMMs will have a peak bandwidth four times greater than standard DDR2 server modules,” continued Scott.
Benefits of using Kingston’s FB-DIMM technology on high-end servers include scalability, flexibility, and higher capacity while
the same new technology will increase speed and performance.
Kingston engineers have developed special boards and test-programs that are used to conduct “parametric” and characterization
testing on high-end Agilent testers to ensure that FB-DIMMs are functional and comply with specifications. Kingston’s FB-DIMMs
come with a lifetime warranty and free technical support plus the legendary reliability that makes Kingston the leader in memory.
