FPM DRAM – Fast Page Mode Dynamic Random Access Memory is one of the earlier forms of RAM type and is an improvement over the conventional DRAM. Traditional DRAM requires the physical column and row address of each memory cell for each memory access, whereas FPM DRAM uses one row address for multiple accesses.
Ironically, Fast Page Mode DRAM is the slowest type of memory technology is compatible with modern PCs and can be on buses up to 66 MHz.
EDO DRAM – Extended Data Out Dynamic Random Access Memory is only slightly (5%) faster than FPM DRAM based on the concept allows complete access to the memory at the start of the penultimate is. This saves time by overlapping processes required to retrieve a data set. Like FPM DRAM, can be used on computer systems at speeds of up to 66MHz with memory bus is recommended.
When introduced EDO DRAM was, was computers (model 486) and more frequently, and therefore economies of scale have the price of EDO DRAM FPM DRAM lower than reduced.
SDRAM – Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory EDO DRAM FPM left and the architecture and can work on systems with higher speed memory bus (100 MHz operated and higher). It works in sync with the system after the first read or write and they may read or write operations on a system of access per clock cycle.
Despite the improvements on the ancient art of memory SDRAM is only slightly (5%) faster than EDO DRAMs. However, the main objective was to use a position of RAM for high-speed SDRAM memory bus.
DDR SDRAM – Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory is a name, if you think long tired of DDR SDRAM, SDRAM, is the concept of an exception to – doubling the number of operations to read or write access to two system clock cycle . This effectively doubles the bandwidth over conventional SDRAM.
The concept of DDR SDRAM is used in AGP (Advanced Graphics Port) technology to improve the performance of graphics cards.
DRDRam – Direct Rambus Dynamic Random Access Memory to offer the largest departure for the conventional RAM architecture. The centers will focus on broadband, but narrow, Direct Rambus Channel.
DRDRam found recognition, agreed as to create Intel chipsets that work with Rambus technology. But how does DRDRam, it suffers from the lack of economies of scale to lower its price.
