Abstract
A memory module includes a memory device having a plurality of data pins and conductive lines electrically connected to the plurality of data pins. The memory device is configurable, using at least one input to the memory device, to a data pin configuration selected from among a plurality of different data pin configurations. The plurality of different data pin configurations include a first data pin configuration that uses a first number of data pins of the memory device, and a second data pin configuration that uses a second, different number of data pins.
