2.1.2 Memory
The CP308 supports a dual-channel (64-bit) DDR3 memory without Error Checking and Cor-
recting (ECC) running at 800/1066 MHz. It provides two 204-pin sockets for two standard
DDR3 SODIMM modules that support up to 8 GB system memory. The maximum memory size
per channel is 4 GB. The available memory module configuration can be either 1 GB, 2 GB,
4 GB or 8 GB. However, due to internal memory allocations, the amount of memory available
to applications is less than the total physical memory in the system. For example, the chipset’s
Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT 5.0) dynamically allocates the proper amount of
system memory required by the operating system and the application.

Note ...
Only qualified DDR3 SODIMM modules from Kontron are authorized for use
with the CP308. Replacement of the SODIMM modules by the customer without
authorization from Kontron will void the warranty.
