1Introduction to Semiconductor Memories
1.1 Classification and Characterization of Semiconductor Memories
Semiconductor memories that can be used to store user data, program code, and other information play an important role in computing systems and embedded systems. A memory system can store millions of words, and each word contains many bits. Because of the rapid development of information technology, the requirements for speed and capacity of the memory system are increasing. Therefore, memory manufacturers and designers need to continuously improve the process technologies and design methodologies in order to enable technology scaling and provide better performance by paying a lower cost.
Based on the functionalities, semiconductor memory ...
