DRAM Technologies and Organization
All standard 256-Mb, 512-Mb, and 1-Gb technologies and addressing are supported for x16 and
x8 devices.
•
All supported DDR2 devices have 4 or 8 banks.
•
The MCH supports various page sizes. Page size is individually selected for every rank.
•
4 KB, 8 KB, and 16 KB for asymmetric, interleaved, or single channel modes.
•
The DRAM sub-system supports single or dual channels, 64b wide per channel for non-ECC
and 72b wide per channel with ECC (82925X MCH only).
•
There can be a maximum of 4 ranks populated (2 Double Sided DIMMs) per channel.
•
Mixed mode Double Sided DIMMs (x8 and x16 on the same DIMM) are not supported
•
By using 1-Gb technology, the largest memory capacity is 8 GB
32M rows/bank * 4 banks/device * 8 columns * 8 devices/rank * 4 ranks/channel *
2 channel * 1b/(row*column) * 1G/1024M * 1B/8b = 8 GB.
Though it is possible to put 8 GB in system by stuffing both channels this way, the MCH is
still limited to 4 GB of addressable space due to the number of address pins on the FSB.
•
By using 256Mb technology, the smallest memory capacity is 128 MB
(4M rows/bank * 4banks/device * 16 columns * 4 devices/rank * 1 rank * 1B/8b =128 MB)
•
DDR2 533 with CAS latency timings of 3-3-3, unbuffered non-ECC x8 DIMMS are
supported at 1.9 V.
10.3.1.1
Rules for Populating DIMM Slots
•
In all modes, the frequency of system memory will be the lowest frequency of all DIMMs in
the system, as determined through the SPD registers on the DIMMs.
•
In the Single Channel mode, any DIMM slot within the channel may be populated in any
order. Either channel may be used. To save power, do not populate the unused channel.
•
In Dual Channel Asymmetric mode, any DIMM slot may be populated in any order.
•
In Dual Channel Interleaved mode, any DIMM slot may be populated in any order, but the
total memory in each channel must be the same.
