8-4

Semiconductor Memory
RAM
Misnamed as all semiconductor memory is random access Read/Write Volatile Temporary storage Static or dynamic

Faculty of Electronic Engineering Dept. of Computer Science & Eng. Microprocessors Course

8-5

Memory Cell Operation

Faculty of Electronic Engineering Dept. of Computer Science & Eng. Microprocessors Course

8-6

Dynamic RAM
Bits stored as charge in capacitors Charges leak Need refreshing even when powered Simpler construction Smaller per bit Less expensive Need refresh circuits Slower Main memory Essentially analogue
Level of charge determines value
Faculty of Electronic Engineering Dept. of Computer Science & Eng. Microprocessors Course

8-7

Static RAM
Bits stored as on/off switches No charges to leak No refreshing needed when powered More complex construction Larger per bit More expensive Does not need refresh circuits Faster Cache Digital
Uses flip-flops
Faculty of Electronic Engineering Dept. of Computer Science & Eng. Microprocessors Course

8-8

SRAM v DRAM
Both volatile
Power needed to preserve data

Dynamic cell
Simpler to build, smaller More dense Less expensive Needs refresh Larger memory units

Static
Faster Cache

Read Only Memory (ROM)


Permanent storage
Nonvolatile

Microprogramming (see later) Library subroutines Systems programs (BIOS) Function tables

Faculty of Electronic Engineering Dept. of Computer Science & Eng. Microprocessors Course

8 - 10

Types of ROM
Written during manufacture
Very expensive for small runs

Programmable (once)
PROM Needs special equipment to program

Read mostly
Erasable Programmable (EPROM)
Erased by UV

Electrically Erasable (EEPROM)


Takes much longer to write than read

Flash memory
Erase whole memory electrically
