then proceed with the work.
• The memory module comes in a static protection bag. Do not take the

Dual Channel
Note: Dual channel is a technology that doubles the memory bandwidth
capability to transfer 128 bits using two 64-bit wide channels for the DDR
memory interface. A total 128-bit wide dual channel DDR memory interface is
achieved by loading identical pairs of two DDR memory modules with the
same speed and the same capacity.
