Abstract

A Rambus in-line memory module may be adapted for the smaller board size used for example with portable computers. By using wrong-way routing, the routing can be achieved in a small size while matching impedance between the routings. By grouping signals on one side of the module's printed circuit board and ground and power supplies contacts on another side of the board, performance may be improved.
