https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/New-Topic-Galaxy-Techfluencer-Of-The-Week/m-p/4136599#M58505 TOPIC: WHAT IS RAM? <BR />Random-access memory (RAM) is a form of computer memory that can be read and changed in any order, typically used to store working data and machine code. A random-access memory device allows data items to be read or written in almost the same amount of time irrespective of the physical location of data inside the memory. In contrast, with other direct-access data storage media such as hard disks, CD-RWs, DVD-RWs and the older magnetic tapes and drum memory, the time required to read and write data items varies significantly depending on their physical locations on the recording medium, due to mechanical limitations such as media rotation speeds and arm movement. <BR /><BR />RAM contains multiplexing and demultiplexing circuitry, to connect the data lines to the addressed storage for reading or writing the entry. Usually more than one bit of storage is accessed by the same address, and RAM devices often have multiple data lines and are said to be "8-bit" or "16-bit", etc. devices. <BR /><BR />In today's technology, random-access memory takes the form of integrated circuit (IC) chips with MOS (metal-oxide-semiconductor) memory cells. RAM is normally associated with volatile types of memory (such as dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) modules), where stored information is lost if power is removed, although non-volatile RAM has also been developed. Other types of non-volatile memories exist that allow random access for read operations, but either do not allow write operations or have other kinds of limitations on them. These include most types of ROM and a type of flash memory called NOR-Flash. <BR /><BR />The two main types of volatile random-access semiconductor memory are static random-access memory (SRAM) and dynamic random-access memory (DRAM). Commercial uses of semiconductor RAM date back to 1965, when IBM introduced the SP95 SRAM chip for their System/360 Model 95 computer, and Toshiba used DRAM memory cells for its Toscal BC-1411 electronic calculator, both based on bipolar transistors. Commercial MOS memory, based on MOS transistors, was developed in the late 1960s, and has since been the basis for all commercial semiconductor memory. The first commercial DRAM IC chip, the Intel 1103, was introduced in October 1970. Synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) later debuted with the Samsung KM48SL2000 chip in 1992. <BR /><BR />Types of RAM:<BR />The two widely used forms of modern RAM are static RAM (SRAM) and dynamic RAM (DRAM). In SRAM, a bit of data is stored using the state of a six-transistor memory cell, typically using six MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors). This form of RAM is more expensive to produce, but is generally faster and requires less dynamic power than DRAM. In modern computers, SRAM is often used as cache memory for the CPU. DRAM stores a bit of data using a transistor and capacitor pair (typically a MOSFET and MOS capacitor, respectively),[26] which together comprise a DRAM cell. The capacitor holds a high or low charge (1 or 0, respectively), and the transistor acts as a switch that lets the control circuitry on the chip read the capacitor's state of charge or change it. As this form of memory is less expensive to produce than static RAM, it is the predominant form of computer memory used in modern computers. <BR /><BR />Both static and dynamic RAM are considered volatile, as their state is lost or reset when power is removed from the system. By contrast, read-only memory (ROM) stores data by permanently enabling or disabling selected transistors, such that the memory cannot be altered. Writeable variants of ROM (such as EEPROM and flash memory) share properties of both ROM and RAM, enabling data to persist without power and to be updated without requiring special equipment. These persistent forms of semiconductor ROM include USB flash drives, memory cards for cameras and portable devices, and solid-state drives.<BR />#Samsung #TechTalk #techinfluencer Fri, 24 Apr 2020 06:03:34 GMT Hashim87 2020-04-24T06:03:34Z https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/New-Topic-Galaxy-Techfluencer-Of-The-Week/m-p/4102337#M57365 <P><STRONG><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-center" image-alt="techfluencer KV.jpg" style="width: 999px;"><img src="https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/783539iE459BF0CE1CB8328/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="techfluencer KV.jpg" alt="techfluencer KV.jpg" /></span></STRONG></P> <P>&nbsp;<STRONG style="font-family: inherit;">Love tech?

RAM can be fundamentally termed as the brain of the the mobile phone . It is like if the brain has stopped working the human is of no use similarly if the RAM stops working the device will also be of no use . <BR />RAM is the most essential part for every user whether he is using the device for reading ,writing ,exicuting operations ,editing, playing or using the device only for social media and daily essentials like calling ,reading articles ,etc RAM is the most essential part . <BR />For persons like me who like playing games and editing RAM plays an important role in their life if the RAM is good as my device is having it is of 6gb RAM it is very good for me as I can do both heavy gaming as well as editing it is only posible because of RAM . For getting better RAM experience just optimise your device using samsung optimizer for optimising as it is the best optimizer which I have ever used and the good thing is that you don't have to download this app it is preloaded in your device . So just optimise your device and get your RAM cleared and enjoy heavy gaming, editing , reading , or do whatever you want to do and just enjoy.<BR />#GalaxyTechfluencer Tue, 21 Apr 2020 12:30:54 GMT https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/New-Topic-Galaxy-Techfluencer-Of-The-Week/m-p/4107036#M57477 Kartik23 2020-04-21T12:30:54Z https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/New-Topic-Galaxy-Techfluencer-Of-The-Week/m-p/4107292#M57486 RAM does your Android phone actually need !! <BR /><BR />RAM (Random Access Memory) is short-term digital storage. Computers (and yes, your phone is a computer) use RAM mostly to hold data that active applications — along with the CPU and operating system's kernel — are using because RAM is very fast when it comes to reading and writing. Even the fastest hard drive or flash storage is slow when you need to read or write something "right now", and while the CPU inside your phone has its own cache to hold data that's being used for calculations, there's not a lot of it. <BR />Even the latest Snapdragon processor's cache is only enough to hold what's being used right now, so you need somewhere to hold what's being used next. <BR /><BR />The OS kernel acts as a traffic cop for everything that goes on when it comes to using your phone's hardware. When a game or any app wants to draw a new screen, the data created to use for it goes into the RAM where the OS can parse it, let the CPU and GPU do any processing needed, then send it off to the display, so the right color dots can be drawn in the right places.It all sounds complicated, and it is, but all you need to understand are three basic things ,<BR />RAM is a place to hold data for a short period of time, data placed there can be read or written very fast, and data in RAM is erased when you shut your phone down. Additionally, a portion of the RAM in your phone is used as soon as you turn it back on and no apps or even the OS is able to use that portion. This goes for just about any computer; they (almost) all have RAM and they use it the same way. <BR />way. <BR /><BR /><BR />How your phone uses its RAM <BR /><BR />RAM in your phone is mostly used as a place for apps that are running store their data. In the simplest terms, that means more RAM can let more apps run in the background without slowing your phone down. But like most things, it's not really that simple. The RAM in your phone is in use before Android is even up and running. <BR /><BR />We're not going to talk about fancy low-level management or things like compcache here, but this is basically how your phone uses the RAM inside of it. <BR /><BR /> Your Android phone runs on top of the Linux kernel. The kernel is stored in a special type of compressed file that's extracted directly into RAM during the device power-on sequence. This reserved memory holds the kernel, drivers and kernel modules that control the hardware and room to cache data in and out of the kernel.A RAMdisk for virtual files: There are some folders and files in the system tree that aren't "real." They are pseudofiles written at boot and hold things like battery levels and CPU speed data. With Android, the whole /proc directory is one of these pseudofile systems. <BR />RAM is reserved so they have a place to live.Network radios: Data about your IMEI and radio settings are stored in NVRAM (Non-Volatile memory that's not erased when you power off your phone), but get transferred to RAM along with the software needed to support the modem when you first turn on your phone. Space is reserved to keep this all in memory.The GPU: The graphics adapter in your phone needs memory to operate. That's called VRAM, and our phones use integrated GPUs that have no stand-alone VRAM. System RAM is reserved for this. <BR /><BR />Once that's done and your phone is up and running, what's left is the available RAM your phone needs to operate and run apps. A portion of this is also reserved for things that need to happen quickly (low-level operating system functions and housekeeping) but it's reserved a different way. These are software-based settings the people who wrote the OS and built the kernel for your phone set, and it keeps a set minimum amount of RAM free so these low-level functions can be done as needed without having to wait for an app to free any memory. <BR /><BR />#Galaxytechfluencer #Tech talk <BR /><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":blue_heart:">💙</span>Love you Samsung <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":blue_heart:">💙</span> Tue, 21 Apr 2020 10:45:20 GMT https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/New-Topic-Galaxy-Techfluencer-Of-The-Week/m-p/4107292#M57486 RajberrY 2020-04-21T10:45:20Z https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/New-Topic-Galaxy-Techfluencer-Of-The-Week/m-p/4108399#M57505 i want to more option of font style. because there is only purchase option for Download plz give me more option.
