What it is

The Samsung DDR4 product family uses a 1.2 V operating voltage, supports bandwidth up to 3,200 Mbps, and uses a Pseudo Open Drain interface.[2]

How it works

Samsung DDR4 uses four bank groups with a total of sixteen banks to reduce interleaving delays.[2]

Samsung DDR4 includes Write CRC and parity checks for command and address transmission to improve data transmission reliability.[2]

Where it fits in the process flow

Samsung DDR4 is intended for systems that need high bandwidth, lower power consumption, and improved reliability in memory traffic.[2]
