Micron DDR3 SDRAM 4 GB Capacity per Module Memory (RAM)

What is DDR3 SDRAM?

SDRAM is a shorthand term for synchronous dynamic random-access memory. The marker "DDR3" indicates that an SDRAM module is using the third generation of double data rate interfacing. This means that the memory chip can communicate with a computer processor twice for every clock cycle. SDRAM chips have a vast number of applications in private and public computing, including rendering, gaming server networking, mobile phone usage, and personal computer usage, and this makes them popular on the market. Chips from the Micron company, such as their 4 GB DDR4 SDRAM modules, most commonly appear in laptops, tablets, iMacs, and desktop computers.

What Are the Features of DDR3 SDRAM?

The performance of DDR3 SDRAM Micron memory chips relies on several key technical features. The following features directly relate to the caching speed and data transfer rate of random access memory chips:

• Memory Modules: The DDR3 memory chip form factor makes use of dual in-line memory modules (DIMM) to connect the chip to the motherboard socket. DDR3 SDRAM modules can fit in 240-pin, 204-pin, 184-pin, and 186-pin motherboard input sockets.
• Input/Output dialing: Synchronous I/O dialing ensure that command and address controls simultaneously process in DDR3 SDRAM modules.
• Read and Write Calibration: Once fitted in a computer system, SDRAM memory chips are for dynamic read and write tasks. This means that data stores and transfers on the chip almost instantaneously. Read and write calibration in DDR3 SDRAM ensures that data can dynamically store at any location in the memory chip.

What are the Advantages of 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM?

• Improved Clock Frequency: The speed of DDR3 SDRAM modules, or clock frequency, determines the efficiency of many components in a SDRAM memory chip. The clock frequency refers to the number of times per second that an SDRAM module can read and write data commands from a computer processor. DDR3 SDRAM modules have a higher maximum twin cycle clock rate than all other SDRAM module generations preceding DDR3.
• Higher Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth refers to the rate that it can read or write onto a memory chip through processor commands. In practice, higher bandwidth rates lead to more faster and more responsive computers and smartphones. SDRAM modules benefit from the improvements in DDR3 clock frequency and data transfer rates.
