SEMINAR ON RAM & ROM

PRESENTED BY
1)YATIN KSHIRSAGAR.
 What Is Memory ?

Memory Is ThePlace Where Computer

Stores the
programme.
Types Of Memory:-

1)Ram (Random Access

Memory)
2)Rom(Read Only Memory)
Basic Types Of Memory :

1]RAM (Random Access

Memory)
2) ROM (Read Only
Memory)
RAM (RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY):

RAM or Random Access Memory is a

read/write type of memory which is used by
the processor to keep program. It is volatile
type of memory or temporary memory
which lose its contents when the power
supply to it is switched off.
HISTORY OF RAM:

Static RAM was first developed by

Intel
in 1969 to replace the traditional
were available.
computer The company's
core memory systemsfirst
that
successful product was the 64-bit
bipolar
high-speed RAM chip. It was called the
3130 Shottky model.
ROM (read only memory) :

ROM or Read Only memory as its name

suggest is a read only type of memory. On
ROM user can not be written data is written
into it by the manufacturer.
Types Of Ram:

1) SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM)

2) DDR (Double Data Rate SDRAM)
3) DRAM
I)DIMMS
II)RIMMS
SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM):

SDRAM is a new type of DRAM.

SDRAM
starting running at 66MHz, while is
DRAM
run at 50 MHz
SDRAM is able to scale to 133 MHz
(PC133) officially, and unofficially up to
180MHz or higher.
DDR (Double Data Rate
SDRAM):

As its name suggest it doubles the of data

rate
transfer of standard SDRAM by
transferring
data on the up and down tick of a clock cycle
i.e. positive and negative.
DIMMS (dual in-line memory
module) :

These types of RAM are mounted on

a printed circuit board and designed for use
in personal computers.
On the bottom edge of 168-pin DIMMs
there are 2 notches, and the location of each
notch determines a particular feature of the
module.
RIMM ( Rambus in-
line memory module):

RIMMs use only a 16-bit interfacebut run at

higher speeds than DDR. To get maximum
performance, Intel RDRAM chipsets require
the use of RIMMs in pairs over a dual-
channel
32-bit interface. You have to plan more when
upgrading and purchasing RDRAM.
Advantages Of RAM:

1)RAM Is Small In Size.

2)RAM Is Volatile.
3)RAM Is Non-Static And Refreshing.
Types Of ROM:

1)PROM
2)EPROM
3)EEPROM
PROM (Programmable Read
Only Memory) :

Empty of data when manufactured.

May be permanently programmed by the
user.
PROMs provide flexible and economical
storage for fixed programs and data, where
high production volumes are involved.
EPROM (Erasable Programmable
Read Only Memory):

The Erasable PROM chip allows stored

the
data to erased and new data can be
reprogrammed.
It provides more flexibility during
the
development phase
Hence it retains the of digital system. for

is around 45 – 90
EEPROM (Electricity
Erasable PROM):

In an electricity erasable the

PROM,
contents of cells can be erased by
the
application of a high voltage.
advantages of ROM :

1) They are non-volatile.

2) They are cheaper than RAM.
3) They are static and do not refreshing.
4) They are more reliable than as
RAM
their circuit is simple.
5) They are available in longer sizes
than RAM.
6) They are easier to interface
than
RAM.
Application of memory:

1) Memory i.e. RAM & ROM isUsed in

Domestic Computer .

2)Used in Servers i.e. Jaguar, Alias,

Apache.
