Low voltage DDR3 DIMMs is supported on Intel® S5500/S5520 Series Server Boards with 5600 series processors and SDR version 22 or higher.

In order to monitor the low voltage DDR3 DIMMs, new sensors are implemented on Intel® S5500/S5520 Series Server Boards and new corresponding fields can be found the Intel Active System Console 4.0 or later.

When using 1.5V DDR3 DIMMs, the 1.35V the sensor will not be active and give no reading therefore the following fields will grayed-out:

BB+1.35V p1 MEM BB+1.35V p2 MEM

When using 1.35V DDR3 DIMMs, the 1.5V the sensor will not be active and give no reading therefore the following fields will grayed-out:

BB+1.5V p1 DDR3 BB+1.5V p2 DDR3

The grayed-out fields can be disregarded. They do not affect the function of the server.
