| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Burst EDO (BEDO) | A refined version of EDO memory that significantly improved access time over Burst EDO. |
| CAS Latency (CL) | A method of measuring access timing to memory, which is the number of clock cycles required to write or read a column of data off a memory module (CL). |
| C-RIMM (Continuity RIMM) | A placeholder RIMM module that provides continuity so that every RIMM slot is filled is C-RIMM. |
| DDR2 | A version of SDRAM that is faster then DDR and uses less power. |
| DDR3 | A version of SDRAM that i8s faster than DDR2 memory and that can use triple channels. |
| Direct Rambus DRAM | A memory technology by Rambus and Intel that uses a narrow network-type system bus, (DRAM). |
| Double Data Rate SDRAM | A type of memory technology used on DIMMs that runs at twice the speed of the system clock is the double data rate. |
| DDR SDRAM | DDR SDRAM is a type of memory technology used on DIMMs that runs at twice the speed of the system clock. |
| double-sided | A DIMM feature whereby memory chips are installed on both sides of a DIMM. |
| dual channels | A motherboard feature that improves memory performance by providing two 64-bit channels between memory and the chip set. |
| dual ranked | Double sided DIMMs that provide two 64 bit-banks are dual ranked. |
| dynamic RAM (DRAM) | Dynamic RAM Looses its data rapidly and the memory controller must refresh it several 1000 times a second. |
| ECC (error-correcting code) | ECC is a chip set feature on a motherboard that checks the integrity of data stored on DIMMs or RIMMs. |
| EDO (extended data out) | EDO is improved on FPM and used on 72-pin SIMMs. |
| FPM (fast page memory) | FPM can be used with 30-pin or 72-pin SIMMs or some old 168-pin DIMMs. |
