Standardization body JEDEC this week announced that it has formally approved the Fully Buffered Dual In-line Memory Module (FB-DIMM) specification. FB-DIMM provides greater bandwidth and a higher capacity per channel compared to current solutions. The standard is based on DDR2 memory and on-DIMM Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB). A fast serial bus channel between the memory and the host memory controller enables an easier routing for multiple channels across the motherboard. Future versions will scale up to the DDR3 generation now being standardized by JEDEC.
