Memory 101 Topics:
Registered DIMM Architecture


  • Registers are used in large memory arrays for better signal integrity

Without Registers - The memory controller is not strong enough to drive over 100 loads (eg. 8 modules in a typical server x 18 chips per module = 144 chips).



With Registers - The memory controller only has to drive a small number of registers, and each register drives nine chips.
