Synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) - is dynamic random access memory (DRAM) that is synchronized with the system bus. Classic DRAM has an asynchronous interface, which means that it responds as quickly as possible to changes in control inputs. SDRAM has a synchronous interface, meaning that it waits for a clock signal before responding to control inputs and is therefore synchronized with the computer's system bus. The clock is used to drive an internal finite state machine that pipelines

CPUs There are two major manufacturers in today’s market – Intel and AMD. How a CPU will vary from CPU to CPU The motherboard system bus carries information into and out of the CPU When the system bus enters the CPU it is commonly called the front side bus and usually uses a 64-bit data path. Inside the CPU you have controllers that manage the basic functions of the CPU and control communication between the between the motherboard and other components within the CPU. These other components include

Unit 5 Assignment 1: Video Summary NT1110 There are two major manufactures we use in today’s market which are Intel and AMD. There are some minor competitions but don’t stay on the market for long. The system bus for the CPU is also known as the Front-side bus as it inserts the CPU and has a 64 bit data pass. In the CPU theirs a controller that controls communication between the motherboard and other components with the CPU. The ALU is responsible for performing complex calculations. Communications

alike. They are available for both desktop and notebook platforms. The current generation of i7 (as well as i3 and i5) processors is Ivy Bridge as of Mid-2012. | | | RAM | There are two different types of RAM: * DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) * SRAM (Static Random Access Memory).The two types of RAM differ in the technology they use to hold data, with DRAM being the more common type. In terms of speed, SRAM is faster. DRAM needs to be refreshed thousands of times per second while SRAM does

Hardware Hardware is the physical components that make up the electronic devices for example keyboards, mice, monitors etc. One main difference between hardware and software is that hardware can be touched and software cannot. RAM RAM is an acronym for Random Access Memory. It is a type of memory that is most commonly found in computers and other devices such as printers. There are two types of RAM. Dynamic RAM and static RAM. The two types of RAM differ in the technology they use to hold data, with DRAM

There are also some smaller competitors that manufacture CPUs, but they tend to come and go. The way a CPU is organized varies, but here are the basics: The motherboard system bus carries information into and out of the CPU. When the system bus enters the CPU, it’s called a Front side bus. The Front side bus usually uses a 64-bit wide data

NT1110 Unit 6 Assignment 1 November 14, 2014 Video Summery 1.08 Memory There are two types of memory ROM (read only memory) and RAM (random access memory). There are two types of RAM: DRAM and SRAM. DRAM aka dynamic random access memory, is the most common but not as fast. SRAM aka static random access memory, is much faster than DRAM in terms of speed, but is not purchased as often because of its price. There are three types of DRAM; SIMM, DIMM, and RIMM. SIMM were used in older model computers

losing data. Fault tolerance goes hand in hand with redundancy in providing a better over-all storage system. RAID also provides increased capacity by combining multiple drives. Computer memory can be primarily be divided into two categories:- 1) Random Access Memory – This is the same as main memory. When used by itself, the term RAM refers to read and write memory; that is,
