Line 454:

Most of [[Dynamic random-access memory#Packaging]] section is about memory modules, and this coverage dwarfs what has been written about DRAM integrated circuit packaging. Although many DRAM standards also define memory modules, I believe this kind of coverage is undue for this article. Such coverage better belongs at [[memory module]]. DRAM is fundamentally an integrated circuit product. As such, whether or not DRAM integrated circuits are mounted on modules for use by end-users is not particularly relevant. At most, little more should be said about memory modules other than this is how the average end-user would encounter DRAM; and that from the perspective of the DRAM interface, memory modules introduce its unique transmission and signal issues. On the other hand, the kind of integrated circuit packaging DRAMs use is of far greater relevance to the topic (DRAM). The kind of DRAM integrated circuit packaging has a multitude of effects; it relates to the cost of DRAM, the physical size limit of the die, routing of on-die signals (which affects latency and die layout), ability to dissipate power, signal integrity of DRAM transmitters and receivers, the PCB area occupied, the design of the DRAM protocol, among other things. I propose the content on memory modules be merged into to [[memory module]]. [[User:AZ1199|AZ1199]] ([[User talk:AZ1199|talk]]) 04:58, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to {{plural:1|one external link|1 external links}} on [[Dynamic random-access memory]]. Please take a moment to review [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=712648504 my edit]. You may add {{tlx|cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{tlx|nobots|deny{{=}}InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

*Attempted to fix sourcing for http://citp.princeton.edu/memory/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the ''checked'' parameter below to '''true''' or '''failed''' to let others know (documentation at {{tlx|Sourcecheck}}).

{{sourcecheck|checked=false}}
