Doubling Memory Bandwidth: AMD’s HB-DIMM Patent Revolutionizes Performance
AMD’s latest patent introduces a groundbreaking technology that doubles DDR5 memory bandwidth without relying on advancements in DRAM silicon. The High-Bandwidth DIMM (HB-DIMM) architecture achieves this feat by leveraging onboard data buffers and re-timing and multiplexing techniques to combine two normal-speed DRAM streams into one faster stream. How HB-DIMM Works The HB-DIMM technique focuses on…
