SODIMM could become the forgotten memory

"Memory overseer JEDEC will formally adopt the 'CAMM Common Spec' as the next RAM module standard for laptops spelling the end of the 25 year old SO-DIMM standard.*

JEDEC committee member, and Dell Senior Distinguished Engineer Tom Schnell said the memory group that homologates RAM standards wants a new spec to replace the basic SO-DIMMs.

Schnell actually created the original Compression Attached Memory Module [CAMM] for Dell last year and it is likely that the new standard will follow that design with some differences as as companies dot the i's and cross the t's.*

"We have unanimous approval of the 0.5 spec," Schnell told PCWorld. Schnell said JEDEC is targeting the second half of the 2023 to finalise the 1.0 spec, with CAMM-based systems out by next year.
