Single In Line Memory Module (SIMM) is a small circuit board or substrate, typically about 10cm x 2cm, with RAM integrated circuits or die on one or both sides and a single row of pins along one long edge. Several SIMMs are mounted with their substrates at right-angles to the main circuit board (the motherboard). This configuration allows greater packing density than direct mounting of, e.g. DIL (dual in-line) RAM packages on the motherboard.
Single inline memory module (SIMM) is a module that has pins on opposite sides of the circuit board that join to form a single set of contacts.
Single Inline Memory Module. A slim board with memory chips mounted on the board that is inserted in a SIMM socket for device memory.

(Single In-line Memory Module) A memory package consisting of a number of DRAM chips on a small printed circuit board. This board provides the connection between multiple memory chips and the computer system. SIMMS come in various pin configurations, the most common type being: 30 pin and 72 pin. A 30 pin SIMM has a row of 30 tin or gold pins long the bottom of the module which determine the amount of data the module can handle. These pins connect to only one memory chip as opposed to DIMMs which can connect to multiple chips.
(Single In-line Memory Module) - A printed circuit board having memory devices and gold or tin/lead contacts. A SIMM plugs into a computer memory expansion socket. SIMMs offer two main advantages: ease of installation and minimal consumption of board surface. A vertically mounted SIMM requires only a fraction of the space required by a horizontally mounted DRAM. A SIMM may have as few as 30 or as many as 200 pins. On a SIMM, the metal leads on either side of the board are electrically tied together.

Abbreviation for "Single Inline Memory Module"] A plug-in circuit board that holds surface-mounted RAM memory chips. The "single inline" part refers to the fact that the pins on the module that plug into the SIMM socket on the motherboard form a single row on the bottom of the circuit board. A newer, higher bandwidth type of memory module called a DIMM ("Dual Inline Memory Module") is finding its way on to many systems.

SIMM and DIMM refer not to memory types, but to modules (circuit boards plus chips) in which RAM is packaged. SIMMs, the older of the two, offer a data path of 32 bits. Because Pentiums are designed to handle a much wider data path than that, SIMMs must be used in pairs on Pentium motherboards (they can be used singly on boards based on 486 or slower processors). DIMMs, which are of more recent origin, offer a 64-bit path, which makes them more suitable for use with the Pentium and other more recent processors. From a buyer's standpoint, the good news is that one DIMM will handle the work of two SIMMs and thus can be used singly on a Pentium motherboard. DIMMs are more economical in the long run, because you can add one at a time to your system.
Single In-Line Memory Module, RAM generally used in older 486 and pentium computers. Denoted by either 30 or 72 pin configurations.

A SIMM, or single in-line memory module, is a type of memory module used for random access memory in personal computers. It differs from a DIMM (the most predominant form of memory module today) in that the contacts on a SIMM are redundant on both sides of the module.
