Micron MT16LSDT3264AY-13EG3-2 256MB 133MHz PC133 non-ECC Unbuffered CL2 168-Pin UDIMM Memory Module

Description

The Micron MT16LSDT3264AY-13EG3-2 is a 256 Megabyte (MB) Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (SDRAM) module designed for use in desktop computers. It operates at a clock speed of 133MHz, identified by its PC133 rating, and features a CAS Latency (CL) of 2. This specific module is unbuffered and non-ECC, meaning it does not have onboard registers to buffer data or perform error correction, making it suitable for standard desktop applications where high-end error checking is not a primary requirement. This memory module utilizes a 168-pin connector, which is characteristic of older SDRAM DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory Modules). It operates at a standard voltage of 3.3V, common for PC133 SDRAM. The unbuffered nature means it directly interfaces with the memory controller on the motherboard, which can offer slightly faster response times in certain configurations but is generally limited in the total amount of memory that can be installed compared to buffered modules. This particular Micron module is ideal for upgrading or replacing memory in older computer systems that specifically support PC133 SDRAM. It is crucial to verify motherboard compatibility before installation, as mixing different types or speeds of memory can lead to system instability or failure. The MT16LSDT3264AY-13EG3-2 represents a component from an era when 256MB was a significant amount of RAM for mainstream computing.
