There are three key advantages to designing in DDR5 RDIMMs with conformal coating.
- Protection against corrosion – Conformal coating protects against corrosion by shielding sensitive electronic components from corrosive elements and by providing a protective barrier against environmental threats, such as oxidation, extending the lifespan of the memory modules.
- Reduced maintenance – Coating modules aids in maintenance requirements due to the enhanced protection from corrosion, which results in higher reliability and lower maintenance costs.
- Thermal stability – Conformal coating modules provides thermal stability and makes them particularly well suited for liquid immersion cooling systems, which are gaining popularity for their efficiency and sustainability. Liquid immersion cooling offers a consistent thermal environment, reducing the risk of thermal hotspots and improving overall system reliability.
SMART’s DDR5 RDIMMs with conformal coating are designed to support the most demanding workloads, including artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), high-performance computing (HPC), and dense database analytics. With support for up to 256GB per module, these modules are perfect for liquid immersion server applications requiring large memory capacities and high data throughput.
SMART’s DDR5 RDIMMs with conformal coating are available immediately through our global sales network.
