Description
IBMB6M64734BGA is a registered 184-Pin Double
Data Rate (DDR) Synchronous DRAM Dual In-Line
Memory Module (DIMM), organized as a one-bank
high-speed memory array. The 64Mx72 module is a
single-bank DIMM that uses eighteen 64Mx4 DDR
SDRAMs in 400 mil TSOP packages. This DIMM
achieves high-speed data transfer rates of up to 200
MHz.
The DIMM is intended for use in applications oper-
ating from 100 MHz to 125 MHz clock speeds with
data rates of 200 to 250 MHz. All control and
address signals are re-driven through registers to
the DDR SDRAM devices. The control and address
input signals are latched in the register on one rising
clock edge and sent to the SDRAM devices on the
following rising clock edge.
A phase-locked loop (PLL) on the DIMM is used to
re-drive the differential clock signals to both the
DDR SDRAM devices and the registers, thus mini-
mizing system clock loading. Clock enable (CKE0)
controls all devices on the DIMM.
Prior to any access operation, the device CAS
latency and burst type/length/operation type must
be programmed into the DIMM by address inputs
A0-A12 and I/O inputs BA0 and BA1 using the
mode register set cycle. The DIMM CAS latency
exceeds the SDRAM device specification by one
clock due to the address and control signals being
clocked to the SDRAM devices.
These DIMMs are manufactured using raw cards
developed for broad industry use by IBM as refer-
ence designs. The use of these common design
files will minimize electrical variation between sup-
pliers.
The DIMM uses serial presence detects imple-
mented via a serial EEPROM using the two-pin IIC
protocol. The first 128 bytes of serial PD data are
programmed and locked during module assembly.
The last 128 bytes are available to the customer.
All IBM 184 DDR SDRAM DIMMs provide a high-
performance, flexible 8-byte interface in a 5.25” long
space-saving footprint.
