Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) is a type of computer memory that synchronizes with the system clock, allowing for faster data processing. It is commonly used in computers and other electronic devices to store temporary data that the CPU needs to access quickly. SDRAM can read and write data in a more efficient manner compared to older memory types. One of the key features of SDRAM is its ability to handle multiple operations simultaneously through a process called burst mode. This enhances performance by allowing the memory to send or receive a block of data in a single operation, making it ideal for applications that require high-speed data access.
