  1. Memory Organization and Interfacing CSE 2312 Maher Al-Khaiyat

  2. Semiconductor Memory • Capacity • Kbits (Kilobits) • Mbits (Megabits) • Organization • Number of locations => Number of address lines • Size of a location => Number of data lines

  3. Semiconductor Memory (cont’d) • Speed • Access time • Volatility • Programmability

  4. Number of address lines Number of locations Number of data lines Memory Organization

  5. Nonvolatile Memory • Read-Only Memory (ROM) • Programming or Burning • PROM; one-time programmable • EPROM; erasable using UV radiation • EEPROM; electrically erasable • Flash ROM; erasable in a flash (fast time) • Mask ROM; mask technology

  6. Volatile Memory • Random Access Memory (RAM) • Types • Static RAM (SRAM) • does not require refreshing • up to four transistors per cell • Dynamic RAM (DRAM) • requires refreshing • one transistor (capacitor) per cell
