Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of memory chip modules, and more particularly to a micro-compressed solid-state storage hard disk module. Background Art

[0002] There are three common connection and assembly methods for modules: embedded welding, connector slots, and board-to-board pin connections. Embedded soldering involves soldering devices together, such as eMMC and UFS. Its advantages are compactness and lightness, but its disadvantage is inconvenient upgrades and replacements. Connector slots, such as conventional memory modules and M.2 solid-state drives, are connected via spring-loaded connectors secured with screws and other structures. This approach offers the advantage of easy upgrades and replacements, but limitations in the spring-loaded pin structure and material, such as conductivity, length consistency, impedance, and shielding, prevent them from meeting the requirements of higher-frequency applications. Furthermore, the space occupied by the connector structure limits lightweight applications. The trend toward smaller, higher-density storage also weakens the seismic stability of micro-storage drive modules, making them unable to meet the demands of next-generation technologies. Board-to-board pin connections were first used in CPUs, utilizing high-precision, tiny spring-loaded pins. Due to their short, highly consistent pins, they are more suitable for high-frequency applications. Memory modules pioneered the use of board-to-board pin connections, resulting in the LPCAMM2 (Low Power DDRV CAMM2 module) and CAMM2 (Compression Attached Memory Module). However, standardized board-to-board pin connections have yet to be established in the flash memory storage sector.
