A memory system system includes a single in-line memory module (SIMM)
which contains a memory device and a signal transmission line connected
between the memory device and a connection terminal, and a dual in-line
memory module (DIMM) which contains two memory devices and a signal
transmission line connected between the two memory devices and a
connection terminal. A length of the signal transmission line of the SIMM
is longer than a length of the signal transmission line of the DIMM. The
load of the memory device of the SIMM is less than the load of memory
devices of the DIMM, and the longer length of the signal transmission
line of the SIMM increases a signal delay time of the SIMM to compensate
for the different loads of the SIMM and DIMM memory devices. The longer
length of the signal transmission line of the SIMM may further compensate
for a signal transmission line connected between the first and second
sockets which receive the SIMM and DIMM, respectively.
