KENTRON TECHNOLOGIES IS SAMPLING A 
512MB SODIMM 

Built using FEMMA technology, Kentron has achieved the highest density SODIMM available in the marketplace.

Wilmington, MA, (March 14, 2001) – Kentron Technologies (www.kentrontech.com), a leader in advanced memory platforms announced the availability of a high-density 512MB FEMMA SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module); Kentron’s latest addition to the FEMMA (Foldable Electronic Memory Module Assembly) product family.  The FEMMA SODIMM is a 1.22” high, 0.27” wide, PC100/133, Unbuffered, 144-pin memory module that achieves densities up to 512MB, using 256Mbit TSOPII SDRAMs.

Kentron utilizes its patented FEMMA technology to build the highest density SODIMM available in the marketplace today. FEMMA is a non-stacking technology that provides a proven and very reliable memory platform utilizing dual PCBs connected by a flexible circuit component.  The flexible circuit technology has a proven track record built over twenty years in the military, automotive and computer industries.  The FEMMA SODIMM has been developed to meet the growing demand for high-performance, high density, low-cost memory solutions in electronic devices, such as next-generation laptops, telecom, compact PCI systems, 1U servers, single board computers, pluggable single board computers, graphics cards and other pluggable adapters requiring high density memory in a single SODIMM connector. 

“Manufacturers of notebook computers can now offer platforms capable of achieving 512MB of memory per slot,” said Chris Karabatsos, Chief Technology Officer of Kentron Technologies.  “This leading edge solution is another example of the memory technology leadership position that Kentron Technologies has.”

Kentron has focused its R&D efforts in expanding its portfolio of cost-effective, reliable, high-quality memory modules to supply the industry with solutions to its ever-expanding needs & challenges. 

The FEMMA SODIMM is available for sampling, please contact Kentron Technologies at (978) 988-9100 for more information.
