JEDEC Announces New DDR4 NVDIMM-P Memory Standard

The industry increasingly demands more capacity and higher DRAM bandwidth. Hybrid DIMM solutions such as the MVDIMM-P offer an innovative method of plugging in persistent memory in computer systems.

It allows you to combine the access speeds of DDR memories, with the reliability and capacity of non-volatile memories. This allows a new approach to data management.

NVDIMM-P offers a full transactional interface protocol compatible with standard DRAM DIMMs. Added to this is a firmware programming model for the modules. This system allows for reuse and flexibility to minimize changes to the system host. It offers a lower latency interface on pop-ups and flexible support for various persistent memory media features and use cases.

Which enables

• Persistence: lower latency and high bandwidth access to persistent memory modules in a system.
• Abastraction of memory media: enables most memory media on the DDR channel
• Greater memory capacity: Supports expanded memory addressing
• Plug and play interoperability: Physically connects standard inline dual memory module (DIMM) and interoperable runtime connections with DRAM on the same DIMM bus.

Features

• Fully compatible with existing DDR channels
• Minimum to no pin on CPU socket
• Non-deterministic latency support protocol for data reads
• Transactional operations to ensure that data is kept in persistent memory
• Latency support from NAND Flash to DRAM latency
• Autonomous reliability plus protection against link failures
