NAND Flash Memory (left), Microcontroller (right). How many times have you been caught off guard by what should be a relatively simple question? “My new flash drive has an insane capacity! How does NAND work anyways?”, I was asked by a friend yesterday. So I blacked out and when I...
How does our memory work, and how can we use it to the best of ourability on a daily basis? This question is at the heart of many neuroscience(神经系统科学) research projects, and now the reward system is at the centerof investigations.By examining brain activity in healthy human subjects...
How Does 3D NAND Work? A typical flash memory chip works by storing data as voltage states within an electrical circuit. To understand how 3D NAND works, it’s important to first understand the inner workings of a NAND cell. What does NAND stand for? NAND stands for “NOT AND,” which...
How does Flash memory work?K茅vin C
Within long-term memory, there are declarative (explicit) and procedural (implicit) memories. Procedural memories are motor-based and controlled by older sections of the brain. They include things like learning how to ride a bike., which further breaks down into semantic and episodic/autobiographica...
How Does Cache Memory Work Cache memory works as a link between the processor and main memory and allows the processor to access data faster than it would if it had to go through the main memory every time. Cache stores copies of frequently used instructions and data from main...
Inside, there's a flash memory chip. How does it work? Read on!Flash works using an entirely different kind of transistor that stays switched on (or switched off) even when the power is turned off. A normal transistor has three connections (wires that control it) called the source, ...
Photo: A computer memory chip like this is an example of an integrated circuit. That means it's a miniaturized collection of thousands of electronic parts (usually called components) created on a tiny chip of silicon about the size of a pinkie nail. This one is a 1-gigabit NAND flash ...
(Because it seems to be related to cost.) That brings up more questions: What is computer memory anyway? What does it do? And how do you know how much YOU need? (Or how much for your wife, or teenage son who lives online?) ...
How does Optane memory work? Optane combines a new kind of memory media (3D XPoint, explained below) with advanced memory management software such as Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST), effectively merging a PC's memory and storage into what Intel considers a single, virtual drive. The combi...
