Modules Technology

What Modules Technology does

Modules Technology, Inc. is a privately-held designer, manufacturer, and supplier of DRAM memory modules and custom printed circuit boards (PCBs), headquartered in San Jose, California and founded in 1993. The company's product portfolio centers on DDR3 and DDR4 memory modules delivered in Registered DIMM (RDIMM), Unbuffered DIMM (UDIMM), and Small Outline DIMM (SO-DIMM) form factors, with the DDR4 line extending to high densities of up to 256GB via 3DS die stacking. In parallel, the firm offers custom PCB fabrication services covering 2- to 16-layer stackups, with combined offshore manufacturing capacity reported at approximately 670,000 square feet per month.

The company operates an asset-light model, relying on long-tenured manufacturing partners in Taiwan and China rather than running owned factories. This offshore sourcing channel is paired with an extensive certification stack that includes ISO 9001, ISO 9002, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, QS 9000, TL 9000, TS 16949, and UL approval, positioning the firm to participate in qualified supply programs for automotive, telecommunications, and industrial OEM customers. The firm has also migrated product lines to RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, lead-free formulations to align with EU environmental directives.

Headcount is reported at 1–10 employees, consistent with a lean sales, design, and program management organization that coordinates offshore production. The pricing and go-to-market model is not publicly disclosed, but product pages suggest a quote-driven, configuration-to-order approach typical of custom memory and PCB procurement. No customer logos, funding history, revenue figures, or recent product launches are disclosed in the available materials, and the company website carries a 2021 copyright, indicating limited public-facing updates in recent years.
