4Gb DDR4 Modules Shipping Now

BOISE, Idaho, April 2, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Micron Technology,
Inc., (Nasdaq:MU) a leading provider of advanced memory and storage
solutions for enterprise data centers and high-performance computing
applications, today announced it is ramping production of DDR4 memory
to support upcoming Intel CPU launches. The improved power and
performance of DDR4 technology is a critical requirement for the
growing enterprise computing market, delivering a power improvement of
up to 35% compared to standard DDR3.

Micron is ramping its 4Gb-based DDR4 module production at 2133
megatransfers per second (MT/s) in support of Intel’s Xeon(TM)
processor E5-2600 v3 product family-based systems. Micron is also
sampling a 2400 MT/s device in anticipation of follow-on products
targeted for 2015.

“Our JEDEC-compliant portfolio showcases the performance and power
benefits that DDR4 products can provide for our customers,” said Robert
Feurle, Micron’s vice president of marketing and program management.
“As a result of Micron’s close engagement with our key enabling
partners, we are well positioned to bring this exciting new technology
to market.”

“We have been working with Micron since the early days of DDR4 memory
definition and through DDR4 product launch,” said Geof Findley, Intel
DCG Memory Ecosystem Director. “We are very excited that our mutual
customers will be able to reap the benefits of this new memory
technology to improve performance and reduce power as part of future
Intel(R) Xeon(TM) processor E5-2600 v3 product family based systems
with production availability of these new processors in 2H’14.”

Micron’s fully JEDEC-compliant DDR4 portfolio includes RDIMMs, LRDIMMs,
VLP RDIMMs, UDIMMs and SODIMMs (ECC and non-ECC), as well as x4, x8 and
x16 components. NVDIMM customer samples are expected in the early 3Q14
timeframe.
