Aptiva - 2162 System Memory Described

Applicable to: World-Wide

System Memory

The Aptiva Type 2162 has two sockets for 168-pin, Gold, SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access
Memory) DIMM modules.

DIMM Identification

168-pin memory DIMMs can usually be identified by the information on the chip modules. (for example,
2Mx64, SDRAM ). To determine the DIMM capacity from the above example, divide 64 bits by 8 bytes and
multiply that answer by 2M, hence, DIMM = 16 MB. DIMMs that are not clearly labeled cannot be
identified other than by part number.
