Micron MT9HTF12872FY-80EE1N8 1GB DDR2-800MHz FB-DIMM 1Rx8 CL6 Memory

Product Description

The Micron MT9HTF12872FY-80EE1N8 is a 1GB memory module belonging to the DDR2 family of Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (SDRAM). It utilizes the FB-DIMM (Fully Buffered DIMM) form factor, which incorporates an Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB) chip on the module itself. This buffer helps to reduce signal loss and electrical loading on the memory controller, enabling higher memory speeds and densities, particularly beneficial in server environments where large amounts of RAM are common. This specific module operates at a clock speed of 800MHz, corresponding to a PC2-6400 designation, and features a CAS Latency (CL) of 6. The 1Rx8 configuration indicates it is a single-rank module with x8 data width per chip. These specifications are crucial for ensuring compatibility with server motherboards and memory controllers that support DDR2 FB-DIMMs at these particular speeds and timings. FB-DIMMs were a common choice for servers and high-end workstations during the DDR2 era due to their ability to support higher memory capacities and frequencies than standard unbuffered DIMMs. The MT9HTF12872FY-80EE1N8 module is designed for applications requiring reliable and high-performance memory, such as running virtual machines, complex simulations, or large databases. Its part number ensures it is a specific, tested, and validated component from Micron.
