Micron launches Crucial 64GB LPCAMM2 LPDDR5X- 7500 memory

Micron has announced the launch of the LPCAMM2 memory under its Crucial brand, which focuses on consumer storage products. This revolutionary laptop memory, equipped with LPDDR5X chips, enhances the performance of mobile devices for professionals and content creators. Recently, Lenovo introduced the new generation ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 mobile workstation, which has incorporated Micron’s new product, establishing it as an ideal high-performance memory solution for AI PCs and processing complex workloads.

The operating voltage of the Crucial LPCAMM2 memory is 1.05V, with a data transfer rate of 7500 MT/s, which is 1.3 times that of standard DDR5 SO-DIMM. Compared to DDR5 SO-DIMM, the LPCAMM2 reduces operating power consumption by 58%, standby power consumption by 80%, and saves 64% in space. Although LPDDR5X has higher latency than DDR5, this is offset by its higher data transfer rate. Unlike soldered LPDDR5X memory subsystems, this modular design does not increase the latency of LPDDR5X memory.

In December last year, JEDEC announced that Dell’s CAMM has officially become a JEDEC standard specification, named “CAMM2,” and it is set to replace SO-DIMM memory modules in the future. CAMM2 comes in two designs: in addition to the standard DDR5, it can also be used for LPDDR5(X), offering higher bandwidth and dual-channel support (total bus width of 128-bit) through a single module. Unlike soldered memory subsystems, this new design is upgradeable, allowing users to replace memory modules and increase capacity as needed.

Currently, the 64GB Crucial LPCAMM2 LPDDR5X-7500 memory is available for order, priced at $329.99.
