CAM cell in memory and its application 2021 OS concepts by VLSI Universe - June 14, 2021July 21, 20210 A content-addressable memory CAM (similar to SRAM) is an associative storage memory that addresses(searches) the content present in the computer. It compares the provided input data with the table of values and returns the address of matched data location. Basics of Content Addressable Memory(CAM) Content-addressed memory or CAM is like the combination of an SRAM with some added searching functionality to it. It does work like an SRAM such as it can read data from the particular memory location and it can write data on the intended memory location. Its main operation other than acting like an SRAM is performing a matching or searching operation. A valid search asserts the output match-line in other words an input value being found in the particular
Cache memory in detail and hit ratio June 2021 OS concepts by VLSI Universe - June 7, 2021July 21, 20210 In the computer architecture or computer organization (COA), cache memory is a very fast memory, which makes sure the data reach from the main memory to the CPU faster. We will discuss in detail the Cache hit ratio and types of cache memories in OS and The role of cache between CPU and main memory in computer organization and architecture. The cache is nothing but a buffer between CPU and RAM. Parameters like Cache hit, Cache miss, Miss rate, Miss Penalty, Cache block, Cache line, and Cache tag, we will understand all of them to increase the cache performance. We will discuss in detail the cache memory and its working, various types of cache memories, what is cache mapping in memories, and how does
