Intel SE7520BD2 Technical Product Specification

Intel® Server Board SE7520BD2 Technical Product Specification Product Overview

2.8.1 DDR-1 266 Memory
For DDR-I 266-MHz installation, 6 loads per channel are allowed on the Server Board
SE7520BD2, although the Intel® E7520 chipset supports 8 loads. This means that for both
single/dual rank DIMMs, the test setups previously listed can be populated with no further
considerations. The test setups assume dual channel operation. The maximum memory that
can be populated is 24GB once 4-GB DIMMs are available.
2.8.2 DDR-1 333 Memory
For DDR-I 333-MHz installation, 4 loads per memory channel are allowed. This is a limitation of
the data duty cycle of the higher frequency. This means that for both single/dual rank DIMMs,
the test setups previously listed must be populated according to the following table for each
memory channel. The test setups assume dual-channel operation. Empty slots are also noted.
The maximum memory that can be populated is 16 GB once 4-GB DIMMs are available. TSOP
DDR333 DIMMs are not supported due to memory timing violations. Based on this, the Server
Board SE7520BD2 and all Intel®-based E7520 chipset boards only support DDR333 memory in
the BGA package. Thus, the Server Board SE7520BD2 does not support DDR333 SDRAMs in
TSOP packages.
