Abstract

An AMB component and a connection interface for a memory installation with fully buffered Dimm memory modules connected in series. The AMB component is disposed on a connecting line from memory modules to a memory controller of the memory installation to re-amplify the connecting line between two consecutive FBD memory modules. The connection interface includes an AMB amplifier component for the connection of a main memory card that includes at least one processor, to an auxiliary memory card of the type having a series of memory modules. Two series of FBD memory modules are connected to respective FBD channels in the auxiliary memory card using FBD connectors in a daisy-chain arrangement.
