SIMM-72

Author: Gabriel Torres Last Updated: December 29, 2005 Category: Memory Single In Line Memory Module - 72 pins SIMM-72 is a 32-bit memory module using 72 terminals. It normally uses FPM (Fast Page Mode) or EDO (Extended Data Out) memory chips. EDO chips offer a higher performance than FPM ones. Since it is a 32-bit module, it must be installed like the following: 486 and 5x86: One in one. Pentium, equivalents (K5, K6, etc) and higher: Two in two, since the CPU accesses memory at 64 bits. SIMM-72 modules were gradually replaced by DIMM memory modules, which are 64-bit modules. click to enlarge Figure 1: SIMM-72 memory module. click to enlarge Figure 2: Motherboard with both SIMM-30 and SIMM-72 sockets.
