18 The individual DRAM chips on a memory stick. These devices commonly

23 * Memory Stick
25 A printed circuit board that aggregates multiple memory devices in
28 called DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module).
30 * Memory Socket
32 A physical connector on the motherboard that accepts a single memory

44 controller. Typically, it contains two channels. Two channels at the

52 * Single-channel
54 The data accessed by the memory controller is contained into one dimm
55 only. E. g. if the data is 64 bits-wide, the data flows to the CPU using
57 memories. FB-DIMM and RAMBUS use a different concept for channel, so
60 * Double-channel
62 The data size accessed by the memory controller is interlaced into two
63 dimms, accessed at the same time. E. g. if the DIMM is 64 bits-wide (72
67 * Chip-select row
70 accessed. Common chip-select rows for single channel are 64 bits, for
71 dual channel 128 bits. It may not be visible by the memory controller,
72 as some DIMM types have a memory buffer that can hide direct access to
73 it from the Memory Controller.
75 * Single-Ranked stick
77 A Single-ranked stick has 1 chip-select row of memory. Motherboards
78 commonly drive two chip-select pins to a memory stick. A single-ranked
83 * Double-Ranked stick
85 A double-ranked stick has two chip-select rows which access different
86 sets of memory devices. The two rows cannot be accessed concurrently.
88 * Double-sided stick
90 **DEPRECATED TERM**, see :ref:`Double-Ranked stick <doubleranked>`.
92 A double-sided stick has two chip-select rows which access different sets
93 of memory devices. The two rows cannot be accessed concurrently.
94 "Double-sided" is irrespective of the memory devices being mounted on
95 both sides of the memory stick.
99 All of the memory sticks that are required for a single memory access or
100 all of the memory sticks spanned by a chip-select row. A single socket
101 set has two chip-select rows and if double-sided sticks are used these
102 will occupy those chip-select rows.
