Montage Technology Delivers Gen2 MRCD & MDB Engineering Samples for DDR5 MRDIMM | PR Newswire [Video]

Gen2 MRCD & MDB reach 12800 MT/s, 45% higher than Gen1 products

, /PRNewswire/ — Montage Technology today announced that it has successfully sampled its Gen2 Multiplexed Rank Registering Clock Driver (MRCD) and Multiplexed Rank Data Buffer (MDB) chipset to leading global memory manufacturers. Designed for DDR5 Multiplexed Rank DIMM (MRDIMM), this new chipset supports data rates up to 12800 MT/s, delivering exceptional memory performance for next-generation computing platforms.

The release comes at a crucial time, as AI and big data analytics drive increasing demands for memory bandwidth in data centers. MRDIMM technology has emerged as a key solution to address this challenge, particularly as server processors continue to increase in core count.

The innovative MRCD and MDB chips are fundamental to MRDIMM operation, featuring a “1+10” buffer architecture where each MRDIMM module incorporates one MRCD with ten MDB chips. In this configuration, the MRCD chip handles buffering and re-driving …
