DIMM - (Dual Inline Memory Module).
A DIMM is a RAM module in the form of a printed circuit board holding memory chips that allows dual channels to be used in a single interface. DIMM modules are dual sided and contain 184 pins providing dual 32-bit memory paths forming a single 64-bit memory path. The predecessor to DIMMs was SIMMs (Single Inline Memory Modules). SIMMs are single-sided modules that contained 72 pins and provide only a single 32-bit data path.
