摘要： A method and system for expanding the number of memory modules that can be coupled to a motherboard such as a server blade is presented. A stack of multiple Dual In-line Memory Modules (DIMMs) is formed using novel double-connector-edge DIMMs, which each have connector pins on their opposite edges. Alternatively, the double-connector-edge DIMM is used to couple the motherboard to a memory expansion card that has multiple single-edge pinned DIMMs coupled in a “daisy-chain.”

摘要： An apparatus, system and method for cooling vertically stacked printed circuit boards (PCBs). In one embodiment, a first PCB is disposed within a substantially enclosed lower chamber inside a PCB containment housing. A second PCB is disposed above the first PCB within the housing to define a substantially enclosed upper chamber above the lower chamber. The second PCB includes one or more airflow apertures defined therethrough and providing vertical air flow coupling between the upper and lower chambers. An airflow actuating device is utilized to generate a primary forced airflow within the upper chamber which is substantially parallel to the surface plane of the second PCB. The primary forced airflow further induces a negative air pressure in the upper chamber such that a mixed convection airflow is established between the upper and lower chambers via the second PCB apertures.

摘要： A method, apparatus and system are disclosed for redistributing memory allocation to portions of dynamic random access memory (DRAM) and dual in-line memory module (DIMM) devices that are underutilized, in order to balance memory usage more evenly amongst active devices so as to limit the amount of power and the thermal load consumed by an individual memory component. The disclosed method, apparatus and system are capable of identifying and tracking memory usage to minimize power consumption in a way that lessens the detrimental effects of “throttling” or reduced power modes for memory devices.
