Mouser Signs Global Agreement to Distribute Memory and Storage Solutions from SMART Modular Technologies

January 26, 2016 - Mouser Electronics, Inc. today announced it has entered into a global distribution agreement and partnership with SMART Modular Technologies, a leading designer and manufacturer of specialty memory and storage solutions. Mouser Electronics is now stocking SMART's embedded flash-based products, removable flash storage cards and DRAM memory products. These solutions target a broad array of applications in the storage, computing, mobile, networking, aerospace, telecommunications, and industrial markets.

The SMART Modular Technologies product line, now available from Mouser Electronics, offers memory and storage solutions — including DDR4 and M.2 SATA modules — designed for demanding applications that require high performance and reliability. SMART DDR4 memory modules are available in 8-, 16-, and 32-GByte RDIMM and 32-GByte LRDIMM form factors, running at 2133 MT/s. The DDR4 modules operate at just 1.2V (up to 20 percent lower power consumption than DDR3 modules) and include Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) to ensure higher reliability at the system level.

SMART M.2 SATA modules are robust, solid state drives with reliable internal storage and a small footprint that are ideal for mobile and embedded devices. Using an industry-standard SATA interface and connector, M.2 SATA modules are easily integrated into a host system without any special BIOS modifications or additional device drivers. SMART Modular M.2 SATA products address the need for enhanced reliability by incorporating on-board error detection and correction and static wear leveling algorithms to provide reliable operation over the product life cycle.

The SMART Modular Technologies product line is now available for same-day shipping from Mouser Electronics, providing customers with an even greater selection of memory and flash-based storage solutions.
