series introduction

# Introduction to the KVR800D2N6/1G Product Series

## 1. Overview
The KVR800D2N6/1G product series represents a high - performance line of DDR2 SDRAM (Double Data Rate 2 Synchronous Dynamic Random - Access Memory) modules. These memory modules are designed to meet the diverse needs of computer systems, from personal desktops to business workstations, providing reliable and efficient memory solutions.

## 2. Key Specifications

### Memory Capacity
Each module in the KVR800D2N6/1G series offers a capacity of 1 gigabyte (1GB). This capacity is suitable for a wide range of applications, including general - purpose computing, web browsing, office work, and light multimedia tasks. It can also be used in systems where multiple modules are installed to increase the overall memory capacity for more demanding applications such as gaming or video editing.

### Memory Type
The modules are based on DDR2 technology. DDR2 SDRAM is an improvement over its predecessor, DDR SDRAM, offering higher data transfer rates and better performance. It uses a 240 - pin DIMM (Dual In - Line Memory Module) form factor, which is a standard for desktop computer memory.

### Clock Speed
The "800" in the product name indicates the clock speed of the memory module. The KVR800D2N6/1G modules operate at a clock speed of 800 MHz (megahertz). This high clock speed allows for faster data transfer between the memory module and the computer's processor, resulting in improved system responsiveness and reduced latency.

### CAS Latency
The "N6" in the product name refers to the CAS (Column Address Strobe) latency. A CAS latency of 6 means that there is a 6 - clock - cycle delay between the time the processor requests data from the memory and the time the data is available. A lower CAS latency generally results in faster memory access times, and a CAS latency of 6 is considered a good balance between performance and cost for DDR2 memory.

## 3. Performance Benefits

### Faster System Operation
The high clock speed and relatively low CAS latency of the KVR800D2N6/1G modules contribute to faster system operation. When running applications, the computer can access data from the memory more quickly, reducing the time it takes to load programs, open files, and perform other tasks. This is especially noticeable in multi - tasking environments, where the system needs to switch between different applications rapidly.

### Improved Multimedia Performance
For users who engage in multimedia activities such as watching high - definition videos, playing games, or editing photos and videos, the KVR800D2N6/1G modules can provide a significant performance boost. The increased memory bandwidth allows for smoother video playback, faster game loading times, and more efficient processing of large multimedia files.

### Compatibility
These memory modules are designed to be compatible with a wide range of motherboards that support DDR2 memory. This makes them a versatile option for upgrading existing computer systems or building new ones. They can be easily installed in desktops that have available DIMM slots, providing an affordable way to enhance system performance.

## 4. Reliability and Quality

### Testing and Quality Control
The KVR800D2N6/1G modules undergo rigorous testing and quality control procedures during the manufacturing process. This ensures that each module meets strict performance and reliability standards. The testing includes checks for electrical characteristics, data integrity, and compatibility with different systems.

### ECC Support (Optional)
Some versions of the KVR800D2N6/1G series may support Error - Correcting Code (ECC) functionality. ECC memory
