Tyco Electronics recently introduced a low-profile double-data-rate 3 DIMM (dual in-line memory module) socket designed around JEDEC industry standards. With a maximum latch height of 16mm, the reduction in the overall height of the device mated with DIMM module permits enclosures to be small or boards to be mounted close to each other while enabling the heat elimination of high-end servers.
The socket addresses interconnect requirements across server, communications and notebook platforms. The product can be applied to high-end servers and communication equipment in a range of industries including consumer/mobile devices, industrial and automotive. The socket is available with three gold plating options, two latch options (black or white) and is surface mountable.
