Definition and Function Computer RAM (Random Access Memory) - Memory RAM is a functioning electronic device for storing computer data that is temporary, and only works when the computer is on course. RAM structure is divided into 4 parts, namely:
  • Input storage, serves to accommodate the input or the input is entered from the input device.

  • Storage Program, part of the RAM that serves as a store instruction program to be accessed.
  • Working Storage, is part of the memory assigned to store data to be processed and the results of processing.
  • Output Storage, serves to accommodate the final results of the data that will be displayed to the output device.

  • Development of RAM

    At this time the RAM has developed very rapidly along with the development of computers, ranging from shapes, models and capacity of the RAM itself. RAM is one of the most important components for the computer because the capacity of the RAM access speed is very influential on the computer, so the larger capacity then the faster RAM access speed of the computer. Here is the RAM development to date:
    • SDRAM (168 pin has a number of loopholes and there are 2 foot section that is used for computers Pentium I to Pentium 4 older models. RAM already encountered this type anymore because it has been replaced with a new model of RAM)
    • Ranbus RAM (RAM is used for Pentium IV computer that already has the facilities 2 channel)
    • Sybclink DRAM (RAM which has a maximum bandwidth of 1600 MB / sec and has a speed of 200 MHz.)
    • DDR and DDR 2 RAM (RAM that has a pin number 183 and there is only one opening on the legs and has a transfer speed of 2 times faster than SDRAM.)
    • DDR 3 RAM (RAM DDR 2 generation after that has more speed in comparison with the previous DDR type.)

    The things that must be considered when installing RAM:
    • Make sure the RAM slots on the motherboard accordingly.
    • Be careful when installing RAM in the RAM slot, let alone the type of SDRAM because if something goes wrong or upside down at the time of installation, the RAM can be broken.
    • Do not forget to open the lock on the RAM before installing RAM RAM slots.
    • After RAM installed do not forget to lock the RAM, the RAM lock.
