Q

T/F. SRAM does require a refresh signal

17
Q

___ is also called refresh signal

18
Q

____ supports memory based on the speed of the front side bus (or the CPU’S QPI) and the memory’s form factor.

A

Motherboard

19
Q

___ is classically used for cache memory?

A

Static Random Memory

20
Q

___ access time come in at 40 nanosecond.

21
Q

__ is more complex, thus more expensive and access times faster 10 ns?

22
Q

___ is a memory type that was designed to be twice as fast as ___ memory that operates with the same system clock speed.

A

DDR3 and DDR2

23
Q

Why wait states is inserted in DRAM through the Bios setup for faster CPU to enable the same memory as a slower CPU?

A

Because ADRAM is not sychronized to the frontside bus, u would often have to

24
Q

__ was the term used to refer to the only form of sychronous DRAM on the market

25
Why you used DRAM to expand memory?
Because it's the cheaper type of memory
