Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory
(storage)(SDRAM, Synchronous DRAM) A form of
DRAM which
adds a separate
clock signal to the control signals. SDRAM
chips can contain more complex state machines, allowing them
to support "burst" access modes that clock out a series of
successive bits (similar to the
nibble mode DRAM).
