Cache On A STick
COAST
(COAST) Intel Corporation attempt to's
standardise the modular L2 cache subsystem in
Pentium-based computers.
A COAST module should be about 4.35" wide by 1.14" high.
According to earlier specifications from Motorola, a module
between 4.33" and 4.36" wide, and between 1.12" and 1.16" high
is within the COAST standard. Some module vendors, including
some major motherboard suppliers, greatly violate the height
specification.
Another COAST specification violated by many suppliers
concerns clock distribution in synchronous modules. The
specification requires that the clock tree to each synchronous
chip be balanced, i.e. equal length from edge of the connector
to individual chips. An unbalanced clock tree increases
reflections and noise.
For a 256 kilobyte cache module the standard requires the
same clock be used for both chips but some vendors use
separate clocks to reduce loading on the clock driver and
hence increase the clock speed. However, this creates
unbalanced loading in other motherboard configurations, such
as motherboards with soldered caches in the system.

8. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
COAST. The margin of a country bounded by the sea. This term includes the
natural appendages of the territory which rise out of the water, although
they are not of sufficient firmness to be inhabited or fortified. Shoals
perpetually covered with water are not, however, comprehended under the name
of coast. The small islands, situate at the mouth of the Mississippi,
composed of earth and trees drifted down by the river, which are not of
consistency enough to support the purposes of life, and are uninhabited,
though resorted to for shooting birds, were held to form a part of the
coast. 5 Rob. Adm. R. 385. (c).
