COMPONENT ARRANGEMENT STRUCTURE FOR SO-RIMM

摘要

PURPOSE: A component arrangement structure is provided to allow for ease of memory expansion and stable operation of rambus interface, while reducing the height of the module. CONSTITUTION: A rambus memory device including a Vitesse rambus controller(100), a rambus DRAM, a rambus channel and a direct rambus clock generator(DRCG) is disposed on a printed circuit board. The Vitesse rambus controller is spaced apart from a rambus socket(210) mounted on the printed circuit board by 1.5 inches or shorter. The direct rambus clock generator which is capable of operating to the frequency of 800MHz, is spaced apart from the rambus socket by 3 inches or longer.
