The company has developed an original alternative to the SO-DIMM standard, which has not changed for many years, is well known to owners of laptops and mini-PCs. The new form factor is designed to reduce the thickness of modern laptops and the number of connectors on motherboards without sacrificing performance.

CAMM modules (Compression Attached Memory Module) differ from the usual solutions, first of all, in dimensions. Due to the use of a flat contact pad, they are 57% thinner, which allows them to be installed in compact ultrabooks, replacing two traditional ones with one universal bar at once. The memory capacity of new products (DDR5 standard, effective frequency up to 4800 MHz) can range from 16 to 128 GB, older models will be dvorang.

Each CAMM also includes its own Programmable Memory Chip (PMIC). The company has already stated that the new standard will not be closed – other laptop manufacturers will be able to use it. It is noteworthy that the proprietary connector, if necessary, can be converted to a standard SO-DIMM using a special adapter.

Vendor has not yet published detailed specifications of the chips. The first commercial devices with CAMM modules will be Dell laptops aimed at the business sector. Whether such components will appear on free sale for a further upgrade is still unknown.
