Supports clock frequencies from 1600 to 3600 MHz (DDR5-3200 to DDR5-7200)

Down-bin operations from 990 to 1050 MHz

Supports test mode operation from 140 to 1400 MHz

Supports I2C/I3C Sideband Bus interface for device configuration and status monitoring

Asynchronous reset input

Operational at VDD = 1.1V +6% / -3%

In addition to the CKD, Rambus DDR5 memory interface chips include Gen 1 to Gen 4 RCDs, Power Management ICs (PMICs), Serial Presence Detect (SPD) Hubs, and Temperature Sensors for leading-edge servers. As data rates continue to rise, signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI) management become increasingly vital. With over 30 years of high-performance memory experience, Rambus is renowned for its SI/PI expertise.

This expertise helps enable DDR5 memory interface chips to deliver superior signal integrity and power efficiency at higher yields for server and client DIMMs.
