Adata 16GB 4800MHz DDR5 Laptop RAM

The Adata DDR5-4800 SO-DIMM (model AD5S480016G-S) is a single 16 GB laptop memory module built on the DDR5 standard, delivering the higher frequencies and improved efficiency that the DDR5 generation brings over DDR4. Running at 4800 MT/s with a CAS latency of 40, the module is tuned for responsive everyday computing, multitasking, and productivity workloads on DDR5-capable laptops and notebooks. One of the key architectural advances in DDR5 is the built-in Power Management IC (PMIC), which moves voltage regulation onto the module itself rather than relying solely on the motherboard. This improves power-delivery stability and is part of why DDR5 operates at 1.1 V — a reduction from the 1.2 V typical of DDR4 — contributing to more energy-efficient operation during extended use sessions. The module also incorporates Die Error Correcting Code (ECC), a DDR5 standard feature that detects and corrects single-bit memory errors automatically during operation. This improves stability and reliability without requiring a server-class platform, making it a practical benefit for day-to-day laptop use. With a 262-pin SO-DIMM form factor, this module is designed for laptops and compact systems that use the smaller notebook-sized slot — not for standard desktop DIMM slots. Before purchasing, verify that your laptop's motherboard supports DDR5 and accepts SO-DIMM modules, as DDR5 is not backward-compatible with DDR4 slots. Verified Specifications: - Part Number: AD5S480016G-S - GTIN / EAN: 517571089083 - Memory Type: DDR5 - Form Factor: SO-DIMM (262-pin) - Capacity: 16 GB (1 × 16 GB single module) - Speed: 4800 MHz (4800 MT/s) - CAS Latency: CL40 - Operating Voltage: 1.1 V - Power Supply: VIN = 5 V - Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 85 °C - Warranty: Limited Lifetime Note: The 'Memory Type' attribute in one source is listed as 'Desktop Memory', which contradicts the SO-DIMM form factor. Based on the product name, MPN, form factor designation, and 262-pin module spec confirmed across both sources, this is a laptop SO-DIMM module. The 'Desktop Memory' label is flagged as a data entry error
