Semiconductor Memory types can be generally exemplified as DRAM, SDRAM, Flash, DDR3, DDR4, DDR5. Other examples can also be given. However, these are the memory types generally used.
When we think of semiconductor memory types, computers usually come to mind. But not only computer systems have memory units. There are systems where memory units such as flash drives, cell phones, sd cards are used.
RAM
When we think of memory types, the first thing that comes to mind is RAM (random access memory). This is normal as it is considered an important parameter for many computers today. However, there are also many types of RAM. One of them is DRAM. DRAM stands for dynamic random access memory. In PCB designs, DRAMs are required to be close to processors. This ensures high communication between the processor and DRAM. In addition to DRAM, memory structures such as FRAM, MRAM, SDRAM can also be shown as examples.
EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory)
In electronic circuits, some data needs to be used instantaneously and speed is often important in these applications. However, in some applications, data may need to be stored for longer periods of time. EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) is more suitable for these applications.
Flash Memory Cards
The previously mentioned memory units are usually located on the PCB in an electronic circuit. However, there are also memory structures that can be used externally. One of these is Flash Memory Cards. Flash Memory Cards are often used in media transfer structures such as cameras, computers, cameras, MP3 players. Their biggest advantage is that they can be changed according to the required memory size and can transfer data quickly.
