Different Types of RAMS

The document outlines different types of RAM, including SRAM, DRAM, SDRAM, RDRAM, and DDRAM, highlighting their characteristics and uses. SRAM is fast but volatile, DRAM is slower and requires refreshing, SDRAM is synchronized for faster access, RDRAM is designed for high bandwidth, and DDRAM is used for display data. Each type varies in speed, power consumption, and cost.

Different Types of RAMS

SRAM:
• It stands for Static random-access memory.
• It’s a type of RAM that stores bits of data via a flip flop circuit.
• SRAM is volatile memory; data is lost when power is removed.

DRAM:
• It stands for Dynamic random-access memory.
• It takes the form of an integrated circuit chip, which can consist of dozens to billions of
DRAM memory cells.
• DRAM is volatile memory.
• DRAM is slower and requires more power than SRAM.
• Data needs to be refreshed regularly or it will be lost.

SDRAM:
• It stands for synchronous dynamic random-access memory.
• It is any DRAM where the operation of its external pin interface is coordinated by an
externally supplied clock signal.
• SDRAM offers faster data access and transfer rates than DRAM. However, it is more
expensive.

RDRAM:
• It stands for Rambus dynamic random-access memory.
• It is a type of SDRAM that is used for high bandwidth applications.
• Its size is larger than SDRAM. However, it is more costly.

DDRAM:
• It stands for Display Data random-access memory.
• It stores display data represented in 8-bit character codes.
• It stores the data that is displayed on the screen.
