Address Multiplexing

Signals A[0] - A[12] and BA[0] - BA[1] on each RAM SO-DIMM make up a 15-bit multiplexed address bus that can support several different types of SDRAM devices. Table 4-2 lists the types of devices that can be used in the iBook by size, configuration, and sizes of row, column, and bank addresses.

IMPORTANT

The iBook supports only the types of SDRAM devices specified in Table 4-2. Other types of DRAM devices should not be used with this computer.
