The properties of the material allow for a much greater capacitance per unit area than with conventional DRAM memory, thus potentially leading to smaller and cheaper integrated circuits.
The microprocessor is directly connected to DRAM memory through an integrated memory controller.
This became the first commercially available DRAM memory, the Intel 1103 (1024x1), in October 1970, despite initial problems with low yield until the fifth revision of the masks.
Instead, DRAM memories came onto the market in the early 1970s that rapidly replaced all previous random access memory systems.
It has more data banks than classic DRAM memory of the same size.
It has more DRAM memory than the E72 but also has some important cost reductions.
The NonStop II also replaced core memory with battery-backed DRAM memory.
The distance of the DRAM main memory to CPU is one of the roadblocks to maximizing the capabilities of the processor.
DRAM memory may provide increased protection against soft errors by relying on error correcting codes.
It also used separate regenerative capacitor memory that operated by a process still used today in DRAM memory.
