Crucial 240-pin DIMMs are used in DDR3 memory for desktop
computers. DDR3 is the latest generation of memory with an improved
architecture that allows it to transmit data more quickly.
A dual inline memory module (DIMM) consists of a number of memory
components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit
board (usually green). The gold pins on the bottom of the DIMM
provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger
printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a DIMM are
not connected to each other.
Each 240-pin DIMM provides a 64-bit data path (72-bit for ECC or
registered or Fully Buffered modules). (The Ballistix™ and
Ballistix Tracer™ high-performance memory do not come in 72-bit or
registered modules.) Standard DDR3 240-pin DIMMs are currently
available in PC3-8500 (DDR3 1066MHz) and PC3-10600 (DDR3 1333MHz)
speeds. Additional speeds will be added as the technology becomes
available.
To use DDR3 memory, your system motherboard must have 240-pin DIMM
slots and a DDR3-enabled chipset. This is because a DDR3 SDRAM DIMM
will not fit into a standard DDR2 DIMM socket or a DDR DIMM
socket.
The number of black components on a 240-pin DIMM can vary, but it
always has 120 pins on the front and 120 pins on the back, for a
total of 240. 240-pin DIMMs are approximately 5.25 inches long and
1.18 inches high, though the heights can vary. While 240-pin DDR3
DIMMS, 240-pin DDR2 DIMMs, 184-pin DDR DIMMs, and 168-pin DIMMs are
approximately the same size, 240-pin DIMMs and 184-pin DIMMs have
only one notch within the row of pins.
