DDR Introduction

Established on the existing SDRAM infrastructure, DDR (Double Data Rate) memory is a high
performance and cost-effective solution that allows easy adoption for memory vendors, OEMs, and
system integrators.
DDR memory is a great evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing
SDRAM architecture, yet make the awesome advances in solving the system performance bottle-
neck by doubling the memory bandwidth. Nowadays, with the highest bandwidth of 3.2GB/s of
DDR400 memory and complete line of DDR400/333/266/200 memory solutions, DDR memory is
the best choice for building high performance and low latency DRAM subsystem that are suitable for
servers, workstations, and full range of desktop PCs.
