Figure 2 This is another exploded view of the low-power compressed additional memory module provided in an embodiment of this application. The low-power compressed additional memory module 10 includes a circuit board 11 and at least one memory chip 12. The circuit board 11 has at least one memory region 110, and each memory region 110 has pads 111 arranged in an array. Each memory chip 12 includes solder balls 121 arranged in an array, and each memory chip 12 is disposed in a corresponding memory region 110 and connected to the corresponding pad 111 through the solder balls 121.
[0054] The low-power compressed additional memory module 10 includes a circuit board 11 and at least one memory chip 12. One side of the circuit board 11 has at least one memory region 110, and each memory chip 12 is disposed in a corresponding memory region 110. The number of memory regions 110 can be the same as the number of memory chips 12, so that each memory chip 12 corresponds one-to-one with each memory region 110. Alternatively, the number of memory regions 110 can be greater than the number of memory chips 12, so that each memory chip 12 can be selectively disposed in a corresponding memory region 110.
[0055] Each memory region 110 has pads 111 arranged in an array, and one side of each memory chip 12 includes solder balls 121 arranged in an array. Each memory chip 12 is connected to the pads 111 in the corresponding memory region 110 through the solder balls 121. The memory chips 12 are soldered to the circuit board 11 using a ball grid array (BGA) package.
[0056] The low-power compressed additional memory module 10 provided in this application embodiment includes a circuit board 11 and at least one memory chip 12. The circuit board 11 has at least one memory region 110, and each memory region 110 has pads 111 arranged in an array. Each memory chip 12 includes solder balls 121 arranged in an array, and each memory chip 12 is disposed in a corresponding memory region 110 and connected to the corresponding pads 111 via the solder balls 121. The memory chip 12 is directly surface-mounted on the circuit board 11 in the form of BGA packaging, which simplifies the packaging process of the memory chip 12, thereby shortening the process cycle and achieving a smaller module size. In the low-power compressed additional memory module 10, the circuit board 11 is designed with at least one memory region 110, and different numbers of memory chips 12 can be installed according to actual needs, thereby realizing the diversified design of the low-power compressed additional memory module 10.
[0057] In some embodiments, the number of pads 111 in memory region 110 may be greater than the number of solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12, the number of pads 111 in memory region 110 may be equal to the number of solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12, and the number of pads 111 in memory region 110 may be less than the number of solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12. No limitation is made here.
[0058] When the number of pads 111 in memory region 110 is greater than the number of solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12, at least two pads 111 of memory region 110 are connected to at least one solder ball 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12. That is, there may be a situation where multiple pads 111 are connected to one solder ball 121. In some embodiments, there may also be a situation where some pads 111 are not connected to solder balls 121, which is not limited here.
[0059] When the number of pads 111 in memory region 110 is equal to the number of solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12, the pads 111 in memory region 110 are connected one-to-one with the solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12.
[0060] When the number of pads 111 in memory region 110 is less than the number of solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12, at least one pad 111 of memory region 110 is connected to at least two solder balls 121 of the corresponding memory chip 12. That is, there may be a case where one pad 111 is connected to multiple solder balls 121. In some embodiments, there may also be a case where some solder balls 121 are not connected to the pads 111, which is not limited here.
[0061] When the number of pads 111 in the memory region 110 is less than the number of solder balls 121 in the corresponding memory chip 12, the pads 111 in the memory region 110 can be connected to multiple solder balls 121 in the corresponding memory chip 12 in a reused manner, avoiding an excessive number of pads 111 on the circuit board 11, reducing the wiring difficulty of the circuit board 11, and thus reducing the processing cost of the circuit board 11.
[0062] In some embodiments, the circuit board 11 includes at least two memory regions 110; in the at least two memory regions 110, the number of pads 111 in each memory region 110 is the same.
[0063] The number of pads 111 in all memory regions 110 on circuit board 11 is the same. The arrangement of pads 111 in all memory regions 110 can be the same or different, and there is no restriction here.
[0064] In some embodiments, the circuit board 11 includes at least two memory regions 110; in the at least two memory regions 110, the number of pads 111 in at least one memory region 110 is different from the number of pads 111 in the other memory regions 110.
[0065] The number of pads 111 in all memory regions 110 on circuit board 11 is not exactly the same. In all memory regions 110, at least one memory region 110 has a different number of pads 111 than the other memory regions 110. For example, if circuit board 11 has two memory regions 110, the number of pads 111 in the two memory regions 110 is different. Or, if circuit board 11 has three memory regions 110, two of the three memory regions 110 have the same number of pads 111, and one memory region 110 has a different number of pads 111 than the other two memory regions 110; or, all three memory regions 110 have a different number of pads 111.
[0066] In some embodiments, memory chip 12 can be a low-power double data rate fifth-generation chip, including LPDDR5 chip and LPDDR5X chip.
[0067] The memory chip 12 can be a Low Power Double Data Rate (LPDDR) fifth-generation chip, including LPDDR5 and LPDDR5X chips. The low-power compression attached memory module 10 can be an LPDDR5CAMM2 (LPDDR5 Compression Attached Memory Module 2) module, an LPDDR5X CAMM2 module, an LPDDR5SOCAMM2 (LPDDR5 Small Outline Compression Attached Memory Module 2) module, or an LPDDR5XSOCAMM2 module; no specific limitation is made here.
[0068] In some embodiments, the memory chip 12 may also be a low-power double-rate chip of generation 5 or higher, including but not limited to LPDDR6 chips, LPDDR6X chips, LPDDR7 chips, and LPDDR7X chips. Of course, low-power double-rate chips of generation 5 or higher may also include other variations of LPDDR6 chips, LPDDR6X chips, LPDDR7 chips, or LPDDR7X chips, and are not limited here.
[0069] In some embodiments, the number of solder balls 121 in each memory chip 12 can be 200 to 1000.
[0070] The number of solder balls 121 in each memory chip 12 can be any value from 200 to 1000. For example, the number of solder balls 121 in each memory chip 12 can be any of 315, 441, 496, 518, 561, and 563.
[0071] The number of solder balls 121 in each memory chip 12 can be 315, 441, 496, 518, 561, or 563, and is not limited here.
[0072] like Figure 2As shown, each memory chip 12 includes 496 solder balls 121. These 496 solder balls 121 are arranged in an array, comprising a first solder ball array, a second solder ball array, a third solder ball array, and a fourth solder ball array. The first and third solder ball arrays are opposite each other, while the second and fourth solder ball arrays are opposite each other and located between the first and third solder ball arrays. The first and third solder ball arrays each include 28*7 solder balls 121 arranged in an array, and the second and fourth solder ball arrays each include 4*13 solder balls 121 arranged in an array. The first, second, third, and fourth solder ball arrays are arranged end-to-end to form a rectangle.
[0073] The low-power compressed additional memory module 10 can support LPDDR5 chips, LPDDR5X chips, LPDDR6 chips or LPDDR7 chips with various solder ball counts. This not only realizes the diversified design of the low-power compressed additional memory module 10, but also increases the application scenarios of LPDDR5 chips, LPDDR5X chips, LPDDR6 chips and LPDDR7 chips with various solder ball counts.

Correspondingly, the low-power compression additional memory module 10 includes two memory chips 12, which are arranged one-to-one in the two memory regions 110.
[0081] In some embodiments, the two memory regions 110 can also be set at any position in the rectangular region 112, without limitation.
[0082] In some embodiments, the low-power compression additional memory module 10 may include a memory chip 12, which may be selectively disposed in either of two memory regions 110.

[0088] The circuit board 11 can be optionally configured with one memory region 110, two memory regions 110, three memory regions 110, or four memory regions 110.

[0091] When the circuit board 11 is provided with one memory area 110, two memory areas 110, or three memory areas 110, or when the circuit board 11 is provided with a small memory chip 12, the rectangular area 112 of the circuit board 11 has more installation space. Therefore, all peripheral electronic devices 114 can be placed in the extra installation space of the rectangular area 112, so that the width of the circuit board 11 can be greater than or equal to 14mm, thereby reducing the width of the circuit board 11.

Specifically, the first voltage is greater than or equal to 0.80V, the second voltage is greater than or equal to 0.25V, the third voltage is greater than or equal to 1.50V, and the fourth voltage is greater than or equal to 0.70V.
[0160] In some embodiments, the power conversion chip 1153 includes a DC-DC conversion chip.
[0161] Each power conversion chip 1153 includes a DC-DC converter chip.
[0162] The power supply module 115 is powered by at least two power conversion chips 1153. It can adapt the output capability of the power conversion chips 1153 according to the actual situation, so as to adjust the number of power conversion chips 1153, flexibly meet diverse power supply needs, improve the scenario adaptability of the power supply module 115, and make the power supply module 115 have high compatibility, thereby realizing the diversified design of the low power compression additional memory module 10.
[0163] Please refer to the following: Figures 17 to 22 In some embodiments, the power supply module 115 further includes a logic control unit 1156, and each power conversion chip 1153 is connected to the logic control unit 1156 to determine the power-on and power-off sequence of the corresponding output voltage based on the logic control signal output by the logic control unit 1156.
[0164] The power supply module 115 also includes a logic control unit 1156. One end of the input terminal 1154 of each power conversion chip 1153 is also used to connect to the logic control unit 1156. The logic control unit 1156 outputs logic control signals to each power conversion chip 1153, and each power conversion chip 1153 determines the power-on and power-off sequence of the corresponding output voltage based on the logic control signals.
[0165] The power supply module 115 also includes a control logic control unit 1156 for power-on and power-off timing. It provides power through discrete power supply and logic control, and can precisely control the power-on and power-off timing of multiple power conversion chips 1153 to ensure the normal operation of each power conversion chip 1153 and the stability of the power supply module 115.
[0166] The power supply module 115 can provide output voltage through the PMIC chip 1151 and VR chip 1152, or through the PMIC chip 1151 alone, or through multiple power conversion chips 1153. These multiple power supply methods provide output voltage to the memory chip 12, allowing for fine-tuning according to actual needs and scenarios, thus achieving a diversified design for the low-power compressed additional memory module 10.

The low-power compressed additional memory module 10 is connected and installed on the motherboard 20 via the connector 30 to constitute the motherboard device 1.
[0168] One side of connector 30 is connected to the side of circuit board 11 away from memory chip 12, and the other side of connector 30 is connected to motherboard 20.
[0169] The low-power compressed additional memory module 10 features a versatile design, allowing for customization to meet specific needs and scenarios, thus enabling the motherboard device 1 to satisfy the diverse requirements of mobile devices. Furthermore, when the motherboard device 1 is used in portable electronic devices such as laptops, users can easily expand memory capacity by simply replacing the low-power compressed additional memory module 10, without needing to replace the entire motherboard device 1, significantly improving the maintainability and flexibility of portable electronic devices.
