- RAM is main memory also, you can call
ram like same with memory. Random access memory RAM is a type of computer
storage whose contents can be accessed in a fixed time not considering the
location of the data in memory. This contrasts with sequential memory devices,
such as magnetic tape, disk and drum, in which the mechanical movement of the
storage medium forces the computer to access data sequentially.
- First became known in 60'an. Only when
the semiconductor memory has not been popular because the price is very
expensive. It was more common to use a magnetic main memory. Semiconductor
companies such as Intel debuted with producing RAM, more precisely the types of
DRAM.
- Usually RAM can be written and read, as
opposed to read-only-memory (read-only-memory, ROM), RAM is usually used for
primary storage (main memory) in the computer to use and modify the information
actively, although some tools use some type of RAM to provide long-term
secondary storage. You know RAM capacity is measured in bytes, the amount
of RAM that can be installed in a computer
system depends on both the CPU in that computers and the operating system being
used.
- To knowing the type of memory module and
the amount of memory your computer can support, so that.s also important to
select the proper type and speed of RAM.
- Most personal computers use SDRAM or
everybody can say ( synchronous dynamic RAM ), SDRAM is commonly available is
DDR or everybody can say ( double-data rate ). DDR and DDR3 version. DDR memory
sends data twice as often as ordinary SDRAM to increase throughput, DDR2
transmits twice as much data in the same time available.
- In order to take advantage of the
improfed performance of using multiple paths, multi-chanel RAM typically needs
to be installed, in matched sets, such as two 1 GB dual-chanel memory moduls
instead of a single 2 GB dual-chanel memory modul.
- Well, RAM as we know it’s volatile, there are several forms of
nonvolatile, RAM ( NVRAM ) that is, memory that retains data when the power to
the device is off becoming available or under development.
- RAM uses memristors or ( short for
memory resistors ) that change their resistance in response to current flowing
through them.
- Applications for nonvolatile RAM is
include storing critical data for enterprice system as they operate to guard
against data loss and saving data necessary to help industrial outomation and
robotics include “ instan-on” computers and mobile device that can be turn on
and off like an electric light, without any loss of data.
- Regardless of the type of RAM used, the
CPU must be able to find data and programs located in memory when they are
needed.
To end up, this might just be me conclude that, if there are
many mistakes in my summary, I am will accept somecriticism from you. thank you
for the attention you've been reading this summary.
