Memory components and modules validated for DDR3 chipsets
Samsung Electronics Co has announced that 21 of its DDR3 solutions have been validated on Intel Corporation's reference platform to work with Intel's next generation DDR3 (Double Data Rate – Version 3) chipsets. This is claimed to be the largest number of DDR3-based solutions to have passed the validation program.
"Samsung's DDR3 memory technology is a next step for DDR SDRAM memory technology," said Pete MacWilliams, Senior Fellow, Intel Corporation. "This technology will also provide the bandwidth headroom necessary to support Intel's platform roadmap of the future."
Samsung has worked very closely with Intel to develop the most advanced and comprehensive set of DDR3 memory solutions as early as possible in preparation for the next generation of Intel chipsets.
"The successful system performance of Samsung’s DDR3 memory chips and modules on Intel’s desktop platform is a clear sign that DDR3
is well on its way to becoming a key technology for desktops in 2007,” said Gerd Schauss, Director Memory Marketing, Samsung Semiconductor Europe."
