DDR3
SDRAM is a performance evolution and enhancement of SDRAM technology starting at 800 Mb/s, which is the highest data rate supported by most DDR2 SDRAMs. DDR3 SDRAMs support six levels of data rates and clock speeds (See Table 3). DDR3-800/1066/1333 SDRAMs became available in 2007, while DDR3
-1600/1866 SDRAMs are expected in 2008 and DDR3
-2133 SDRAMs in 2009.
DDR3
-1066 SDRAM uses less power than DDR2-800 SDRAM because the DDR3
SDRAM operating voltage is 1.5 volts, which is 83% of DDR2 SDRAM’s 1.8 volts. Also, the DDR3
SDRAM data DQ drivers are at higher 34 ohms impedance than DDR2 SDRAM’s lower 18 ohms impedance.
DDR3
SDRAM will start with 512 Mb of memory and will grow to 8 Gb memory in the future. Just like DDR2 SDRAM, DDR3
SDRAM data output configurations include x4, x8 and x16. DDR3
SDRAM has eight banks where as DDR2 SDRAM has four or eight depending upon the memory size.
