STEC offers one of the widest portfolios of DRAM products ranging form the latest DDR3 modules to legacy FPM (Fast Page Mode) and EDO (Extended Data Out) modules. And, of course, the high volume DDR2, DDR, and SDRAM technologies in-between. These products are also available in one of the widest array of form factors including full-sized DIMMs, VLP DIMMs, So-DIMMs, and mini-DIMMs with capacities ranging from 64MB all the way up to 8GB. With such a wide variety to choose from, STEC can provide the right solution for any application.
DDR3
DDR3 continues the evolution of the double data rate technologies to provide continued improvements in performance. The DDR3 technology is just being introduced and is not projected to be cost competitive with the DDR2 technology until 2009 or 2010.
DDR2
DDR2 is an evolutionary enhancement over DDR2. This technology
is currently the largest selling technology today and
offers the best cost per bit. Most new systems designs
today would likely choose to use DDR2. It takes advantage
of the DDR improvements to transfer data on both edges
of the clock.
DDR
Double Data Rate (DDR) is an advancement over SDRAM
technology that increases memory bandwidth and performance
while maintaining competitive pricing. DDR is the evolutionary
technology that succeeded the previous standard Synchronous
DRAM technology, which is now called SDR (Single Data
Rate).
SDRAM
SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) is the common term to classify PC66 (1997), PC100 (1998) and PC133 SDRAM (1999/2000). SDRAMs are based on standard dynamic RAM chips, but have sophisticated features that make them considerably faster.
EDO/FPM
FPM (Fast Page Mode) and EDO (Extended Data Out) technologies are older technologies popular in the late 1980's and early 1990's.
