2.5 V Decoupling Requirements
Decouple the DIMM connectors as shown in
(0603) capacitors between each pair of DIMM connectors. Place two Tantalum 100 µF capacitors
around each DIMM connector and two additional Tantalum 100 µF capacitors per channel, keeping
them within 0.5 inch of the DIMM connectors.
