Abstract: A memory subsystem triggers dynamic switching for memory devices to provide access to active memory devices and prevent access to inactive memory devices. Dynamic switching enables a single bus to switch between multiple memory devices whose capacity otherwise exceeds the capacity of the single bus. A switch can be mounted in a memory module or directly on a motherboard alongside the memory devices. A memory controller can toggle a chip select signal as a single control signal to drive the switch. Each switch includes pairs of field effect transistors (FETs), including any of CMOS, NMOS and PMOS FETs. The switch electrically isolates inactive memory devices to prevent access without the need to electrically short the devices.

Abstract: Compression Attached Memory Module (CAMM) connector pin with multi-spring (dual bend direction) levers and associated connectors. The connector pin comprises an upper cantilevered spring member coupled to an upper portion of a body and a lower cantilevered spring member coupled to a lower portion of the body. Each of the upper and lower cantilevered spring members include at least one forward bending lever and a backward bending lever. The upper cantilevered spring member may have a pair of arms merging to form an upper unified spring member having a nose and looping backwards over the arms and having an apex. A lower cantilevered spring may have a pair of legs merging to form a lower unified spring member having a nose and looping backwards under the legs and having a bottom. When compressed the forward and backward bending levers counteract one another in the horizontal plane, reducing horizontal displacement.

Abstract: Devices include a connecting card that may be used in a memory connector. The connecting card may include a substrate including a first substrate region and a second substrate region, a plurality of adjacent signal pathways extending from the first substrate region to the second substrate region, and a capacitor positioned between each of the adjacent signal pathways. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
