(Phys.org) -- Micron Technology is polishing up its DDR4 memory modules, “sampling” the modules and getting feedback from major customers. The company plans to reach volume production later this year. In brief, Micron is getting ready to bring its DDR4 DRAM modules for market This means the computer industry can expect a new memory standard to make a difference across a range of computing devices, from enterprise computing to so called ultra-thins and tablets. Boise Idaho based Micron this week announced the first piece of its portfolio of DDR4-based modules as the 4-gigabit (Gb) DDR4 x8 part. The announcement said the complete portfolio of DDR4-based modules will include RDIMMs, LRDIMMs, 3DS, SODIMMs and UDIMMs (standard and ECC). https://phys.org/news/2012-05-ddr3-memory-ddr4.html Electronics & Semiconductors Thu, 10 May 2012 05:40:01 EDT news255845029 (PhysOrg.com) -- Samsung has released the NC215 solar-powered netbook in Korea.
