Memory is one of a very few elite electronic components essential to any electronic system. Modern electronics perform extraordinarily complex duties that would be impossible without memory. Your computer obviously contains memory, but so does your car, your smartphone, your doorbell camera, your entertainment system, and any other gadget benefiting from digital electronics.

This eBook provides an overview of memory technology in all its guises. It’s primarily intended for trained electronics engineers who have specialties elsewhere but seek a better understanding of memory, but it’s also relevant for other professionals in business, investors, students, and anyone who wants to understand the underpinnings of data processing and AI.

At its most fundamental level, memory technology changes infrequently on a grand scale. Although new memory is always a research topic, it’s unusual for a new one to go mainstream – and it’s a big deal when it does. But the dominant technologies don’t stand still; they’re constantly being upgraded for higher capacity, faster speed, and lower power. They’re also adapted for greater functional safety and security.

The report topics include: memory characteristics and traits, memory cell types, structure, roles for different cells, CXL, security, design, test and emerging technologies. Additionally, academic technical reports are also referenced covering 3D NAND, Cache, CXL, DNA-based memory, DRAM, ferroeletric memory, flash memory, in-compute memory, HBM, Rowhammer, MRAM, memristors, RRAM and much more.
