3.1.2 Memory

The aTCA-9700 is a dual processor system with each Intel® Xeon® processor E5 2600 v2
series providing four memory channels supporting DDR3 800, 1066, 1333, 1600, 1866 MT/s
DIMMs. The maximum memory capacity is 128GB with memory interleaving support. The
400/533/667/800/933 MHz differential memory clocks are driven by the Intel® Xeon®
processor E5-2600 v2 CPU with length-matching and impedance controlled through all the
DIMM slots.

The DDR3 DIMMs support the I

2

C interface. They are connected together and routed to the

PCH for the management.


Memory configuration changes are only permitted to be performed at the factory.
Failure to comply with the above may result in damage to your board or improper
operation.
