Cache Virtual Memory

Primary Memory

SRAM (Static RAM)

• Constructed using flip‐flops

• 6 transistors for each bit of storage

• Very fast

• Contents are retained as long as power is kept on

• Expensive

• Used in level 2 cache

DRAM (Dynamic RAM)

• No flip‐flops

• Array of cells, each consisting a transistor and a

capacitor

• Refreshing takes several CPU cycles to complete

(less than 1% of overall bandwidth)

• High density (30 times smaller than SRAM)

• Used in main memories

• Slower than SRAM

• Inexpensive (30 times lower than SRAM)

SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM)

• Hybrid of SRAM and DRAM

• Runs in synchronization with the system bus

• Driven by a single synchronous clock

• Used in large caches, main memories

DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM

• An upgrade to standard SDRAM

• Performs 2 transfers per clock cycle (one at falling edge, one at rising edge) without doubling actual clock rate

Dual channel DDR

• Technique in which 2 DDR DIMMs are installed at one time and function as a single bank doubling the bandwidth of a single module

• DDR2 SDRAM– A faster version of DDR SDRAM (doubles the data rate of DDR)– Less power consumption than DDR

– Achieves higher throughput by using differential pairs of signal wires– Additional signal add to the pin count

• DDR3 SDRAM– An improved version off DDR2 SDRAM– Same no. of pins as in DDR2, – Not compatible with DDR2– Can transfer twice the data rate of DDR2– DDR3 standard allows chip sizes of 512 Megabits to

8 Gigabits (max module size – 16GB)

• Is a form of computer data storage

• The word RAM is often associated with volatile types of memory, where the information is lost after the power is switched off

• Types of RAM

– SRAM (static RAM)

– DRAM (dynamic RAM)

– EPROM

– EEPROM

– Flash

Example

Cache memory

Cache Memory

• A high‐speed,speed small memory

• Most frequently used memory words are kept in

• When CPU needs a word, it first checks it in

cache. If not found, checks in memory

Cache and Main Memory

Cache Memory

• L1 cache

• L2 Cache

• L3 Cache

Secondary Memory

Technologies

• Magnetic storage

– Floppy, Zip disk, Hard drives, Tapes

• Optical storage

– CD, DVD, Blue-Ray, HD-DVD

• Solid state memory

– USB flash drive, Memory cards for mobile phones/digital cameras/MP3 players, Solid State Drives

Magnetic Disk

• Purpose:

– Long term, non-volatile storage

– Large, inexpensive, and slow

– Lowest level in the memory hierarchy• Two major types:

– Floppy disk, Hard disk

• Both types of disks:

– Rely on a rotating platter coated with a magnetic surface– Use a moveable read/write head to access the disk

• Advantages of hard disks over floppy disks:

– Higher density because it can be controlled more precisely

– Higher data rate because it spins faster

– Can incorporate more than one platter

Disk Track Components of a Disk

• The arm assembly is moved in or out to position a head on a desired track. Tracks under heads make a cylinder (imaginary!).

• Only one head reads/writes at any one time.

• Block size is a multiple of sector size (which is often fixed).

Internal Hard-Disk

RAID-(Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks)

• A disk organization used to improve performance of

storage systems

• An array of disks controlled by a controller (RAID Controller)

• Data are distributed over disks (striping) to allow

parallel operation

Hard Disk

• Non-volatile storage

device

• Types of Hard Disk

– SATA

– IDE

• Capacity

– 320GB

• Speed

– 7200 r.p.m.

Example

Optical Storage Devices CD / DVD

Physical Organization of CD

• Compact Disk – read only memory (write once)

• Data is encoded and read optically with a laser

• Can store around 600MB data

• Digital data is represented as a series of Pits and

Lands:

– Pit = a little depression, forming a lower level in the track

– Land = the flat part between pits, or the upper levels in the track

• Reading a CD is done by shining a laser at the disc and detecting changing reflections patterns.

CD-ROM

• Addressing– 1 second of play time is divided up into 75 sectors.

– Each sector holds 2KB

– 60 min CD:60min * 60 sec/min * 75 sectors/sec = 270,000 sectors = 540,000 KB ~ 540 MB

– A sector is addressed by: Minute:Second:Sector e.g. 16:22:34

• Type of laser

– CD: 780nm (infrared)

– DVD: 635nm or 650nm (visible red)

– HD-DVD/Blu-ray Disc: 405nm (visible blue)

• Capacity

– CD: 650 MB, 700 MB

– DVD: 4.7 GB per layer, up to 2 layers

– HD-DVD: 15 GB per layer, up to 3 layers

– BD: 25 GB per layer, up to 2 layers

Solid State Devices

Virtual Memory

• Virtual memory is a memory management

technique developed for multitasking kernels

• Separation of user logical memory from physical

memory.

• Logical address space can therefore be much larger

than physical address space

� Addresses generated by the CPU correspond directly to bytes in physical

memory
