LPCAMM2 Client Chipset
Delivering the performance of LPDDR5 in a revolutionary module form factor
LPCAMM2 Power Management IC and SPD Hub Chips
The Rambus LPCAMM2 memory interface chipset for clients includes a Power Management IC (PMIC) and Serial Presence Detect Hub (SPD Hub). These chips enable the revolutionary LPCAMM2 form factor for PCs bringing the bandwidth and capacity benefits of LPDDR5 memory with the flexibility and reliability of a module.

Rambus LPCAMM2 Client Chipset Performance
The Rambus LPCAMM2 Client Chipset enables the operation of LPCAMM2 modules up to the maximum data rate of LPDDR5X/T memory (9.6G+). LPCAMM2 overcomes the previous limitation of LPDDR memory in PCs wherein the LPDDR DRAM devices had to be soldered down to the motherboard.
The PMIC5200 receives a high voltage input and steps it down to the voltages needed to power the LPDDR DRAM and all other chips on the module. This architecture supports greater power efficiency and finer grain control of supply currents.
The SPD Hub with integrated temperature sensor enables communication via the I3C bus of important data for system configuration and thermal management.
Ask the Experts: Client Memory Interface Chipsets
In this episode of Ask the Experts, we discuss client chipsets for DIMMs and LPCAMM2 with Carlos Weissenberg, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Memory Interface Chips at Rambus. Topics include: the need for advanced chips to enable higher levels of performance, the role of Client Clock Driver (CKD) and Power Management ICs (PMIC), and how AI applications are driving the need for greater memory bandwidth and capacity.
Data Center Evolution: DDR5 DIMMs Advance Server Performance
Driven by a confluence of megatrends, global data traffic is increasing at an exponential rate. For example, 5G networks are enabling billions of AI-powered IoT devices untethered from wired networks. Nowhere is the impact of all this growth being felt more intensely than in data centers. Indeed, hyperscale data centers have become the critical hubs of the global data network. DDR5 DRAM will enable the next generation of server systems providing the massive computing power of hyperscale and enterprise data centers. Learn about the benefits of DDR5 memory and the design considerations for implementing DDR5 DIMMs.
