Kingston debuts memory for Supermicro server boards
Kingston Technology Company Inc. has launched a series of ValueRAMServer Premiermemory solutions for server boards fromSuperMicro Computer, Inc. (Supermicro). The company also developed a specialWeb page to help customers find additional information and select the right Kingstonmemory solutions for their Supermicro boards.
The ValueRAMServer Premier line is
manufactured using a locked bill-of-materials (BOM) for customerswho require the brand and revision of PCB and die to always remain the same fromqualification through actual server deployment, said Kingston.
Thememory devices have been
independently certified by Advanced Validation Labs (AVL), a technology services company specializing in testing and validating pre- and post-productionmemory. AVL certification guarantees 100-percent memory compatibilitywith the Supermicro boards listed on thewebsite, said Kingston.
Thesememorymodules have a lifetime
warranty and are backed by 24/7 technical support. Customers are notified in advance of impending BOMchanges via a Product Change Notification (PCN) process.

Arrow, Freescale, Linear roll analogmodule
Arrow Electronics, Inc. has partnered with Freescale Semiconductor and Linear Technology to launch a new analog peripheralmodule for the Freescale Tower System, featuring high-performance data conversion products. The high-precision analogmodule targets a range of industrial andmedical applications.
The Tower Systemis amodular development
platformwith a growingmicrocontroller/ microprocessor and peripheralmodule portfolio, which helps developers evaluate and prototype their applications.
The new analog module plugs directly
into the Tower System, and gives engineers the ability to evaluate and determine the best analog components for their designs. The modular and reconfigurable Tower System, combined with complementary RTOS, TCP/IP and USB stacks provided by FreescaleMQX Software Solutions, allows designs to be proven before a prototype board is built, which saves both time and resources, said the companies.

Surface-mount LEDs target automotive signaling
Lumileds. As part of theMEOST testing regime, developed in conjunctionwith the company's tier 1 customers, SignalSure LEDs are exposed to extreme heat, humidity, and high levels of sulphur gas. Philips Lumileds simulates high- voltage jump start and high-voltage alternator failure to ensure that the SignalSure LEDswill continue to operatewithout degradation in performance, quality, and light output.
TheMEOST test regime is outlined in the
Philips Lumileds has unveiled the SignalSure mid-power LEDs for automotive signaling applications. The surface-mount LED has undergone aMulti EnvironmentOverstress Testing (MEOST) regime that exceeds the testing required by today's standards for automotive signaling LED sources, according to the company.
TheMEOST testing for SignalSure exceeds
datasheetmaximums to ensure ongoing reliability and performance, said Philips
SignalSure Reliability Datasheet that is available fromthe Philips Lumiledswebsite. SignalSure LEDs are AEC-Q101Qualified and meet Japanese and SAE/ECE requirements.
Applications include center stop, side-
marker, tail,mirror turn, rear fog, and motorcycle signaling. SignalSure is available in red-orange and amber colors per automotive specifications.

Aimed atmobile communications applications, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has developed a 1-gigabit (Gbit)mobile DRAMwith awide I/O interface, using 50- nanometer (nm) class process technology. Themobile DRAMcan transmit data at 12.8 gigabyte (GB) per second,which increases the bandwidth ofmobile DDR DRAM(1.6 GB/s) eightfold,while reducing power consumption by approximately 87 percent, said Samsung. The bandwidth is also four times that of LPDDR2 DRAM,which is approximately 3.2 GB/s.
44 |March 2011 To boost data transmission, the wide I/O
DRAMuses 512 pins for data input and output compared to the previous generation ofmobile DRAMs, which used a maximumof 32 pins. If you include the pins that are used in sending commands and regulating power supply, a single Samsung wide I/O DRAMis designed to accommodate approximately 1,200 pins, said the company.
Samsung expects to develop a 20nm-class 4-Gbitwide I/Omobile DRAMin 2013.
