The Playground

The server DIMM
is our playground

Every signal path on an LRDIMM — RCD and data buffers — is our research target.

RCD — the chip that
re-drives the clock

Receives weakened clock/command and re-drives it to dozens of DRAMs. 9600+ MT/s, silicon-verified.

Hiding the load —
the Data Buffer

The controller never feels dozens of DRAMs — signals are regenerated and relaunched.

If the eye is open,
the data survives

The eye diagram is the health record of a link. Eye opening is design skill, made visible.

Keeping analog alive
below one volt

Analog gets harder as supplies shrink — we push energy-per-bit to its floor.
