[ MEMORY // IDENTIFIED VINTAGE MODULE ]
Samsung KMM5364105CK
Samsung’s 4M × 36 high-density module is documented for both Fast Page and EDO modes, unlike the FPM-only peers. This is a model-specific record, not a generic SIMM-family listing.
Exact module specifications
| Manufacturer / exact part number | Samsung KMM5364105CK |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 16 MB (4M × 36 bits; 32 data plus four parity bits) |
| Generation / contact count | 72-pin SIMM, 72-pin single-inline-contact vintage generation |
| Memory mode and parity | FPM with EDO-mode support; parity width (36-bit); no claim of ECC correction |
| Speed / access time | 60 ns row-access (tRAC) timing variant documented for this module family; EDO timing must be supported by the host chipset |
| Operating voltage | 5 V nominal (module-family datasheet specifies a single +5 V supply; ±10% where stated). |
| Chip organization | Eight 4M × 4 DRAMs plus one 4M × 4 Quad-CAS EDO DRAM on a 72-pin glass-epoxy substrate |
Host compatibility & handling
Use in a 72-pin, 5 V 486/early Pentium board that supports 16 MB density and 36-bit parity. EDO operation is conditional on chipset/BIOS support; otherwise use only a documented compatible mode. Check bank capacity and parity handling.
- 72-pin SIMMs have 32-bit data or 36-bit data-plus-parity organization; 30-pin SIMMs expose 8 or 9 bits. 30-pin and 72-pin modules are not interchangeable.
- Confirm the system’s documented voltage, supported memory density, parity policy, bank-width/population order, and access timing before installation; matching notches do not guarantee support.
- Handle by board edges, protect from ESD, and document the complete module/chip markings and the host used for testing.
Model-specific identification notes
Samsung’s 4M × 36 high-density module is documented for both Fast Page and EDO modes, unlike the FPM-only peers. The module organization and exact SKU should be checked against the cited data-sheet/archive records and the physical label; speed suffixes are not interchangeable.
