The IF70 Mini-ITX SBC has two 260-pin SODIMM slot. The socket supports DDR4.
When installing the memory unit, please follow the steps below:
1. Firmly insert the SO-DIMM at an angle of about 30-degree into the slot. Align the
SO-DIMM with the slot until it is fully inserted. The notch on the SO-DIMM should match
the break on the slot.
2. Press downwards on SO-DIMM until the retaining clips at both ends fully snap closed
and the SO-DIMM is properly seated.
CAUTION
The SO-DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent
damage to the development board and the SO-DIMM if the SO-DIMM is
forced into the slot at the incorrect orientation.

2.4 Jumper Settings
This section explains how to set jumpers for correct configuration of the motherboard.
NOTE:
A pair of needle nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. If you have
any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application, contact your
local distributor or sales representative before you make any changes. Generally,
you simply need a standard cable to make most connections.
The jumper setting diagram is shown below. When the jumper cap is placed on both pins, the
jumper is SHORT. The illustration below shows a 3-pin jumper; pins 1 and 2 are short. If you
remove the jumper cap, the jumper is OPEN.
PIN 1-2 SHORT
PIN 3 OPEN
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the module, always turn off the power supply
before setting jumpers or clearing CMOS.
