  • Section 10 Flash Technology
    10 FLASH TECHNOLOGY Overview Flash memory technology is a mix of EPROM and EEPROM technologies. The term “flash” was chosen because a large chunk of memory could be erased at one time. The name, therefore, distinguishes flash devices from EEPROMs, where each byte is erased individually. Flash memory technology is today a mature technology. Flash memory is a strong com- petitor to other memories such as EPROMs, EEPROMs, and to some DRAM applications. Figure 10-1 shows the density comparison of a flash versus other memories. 64M 16M 4M DRAM/EPROM 1M SRAM/EEPROM Density 256K Flash 64K 1980 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 1992 1994 1996 Year Source: Intel/ICE, "Memory 1996" 18613A Figure 10-1. Flash Density Versus Other Memory How the Device Works The elementary flash cell consists of one transistor with a floating gate, similar to an EPROM cell. However, technology and geometry differences between flash devices and EPROMs exist. In particular, the gate oxide between the silicon and the floating gate is thinner for flash technology. It is similar to the tunnel oxide of an EEPROM. Source and INTEGRATED CIRCUIT ENGINEERING CORPORATION 10-1 Flash Technology drain diffusions are also different. Figure 10-2 shows a comparison between a flash cell and an EPROM cell with the same technology complexity. Due to thinner gate oxide, the flash device will be more difficult to process.

  • Unit 5: Memory Organizations
    Memory Organizations Unit 5: Memory Organizations Introduction This unit considers the organization of a computer's memory system. The characteristics of the most important storage technologies are described in detail. Basically memories are classified as main memory and secondary memory. Main memory with many different categories are described in Lesson 1. Lesson 2 focuses the secondary memory including the details of floppy disks and hard disks. Lesson 1: Main Memory 1.1 Learning Objectives On completion of this lesson you will be able to : • describe the memory organization • distinguish between ROM, RAM, PROM, EEPROM and • other primary memory elements. 1.2 Organization Computer systems combine binary digits to form groups called words. The size of the word varies from system to system. Table 5.1 illustrates the current word sizes most commonly used with the various computer systems. Two decades ago, IBM introduced their 8-bit PC. This was Memory Organization followed a few years later by the 16-bit PC AT microcomputer, and already it has been replaced with 32- and 64-bit systems. The machine with increased word size is generally faster because it can process more bits of information in the same time span. The current trend is in the direction of the larger word size. Microcomputer main memories are generally made up of many individual chips and perform different functions. The ROM, RAM, Several types of semi- PROM, and EEPROM memories are used in connection with the conductor memories. primary memory of a microcomputers. The main memory generally store computer words as multiple of bytes; each byte consisting of eight bits.

  • Recovering Data from Failing Floppy Disks
    Chapter 3 RECOVERING DATA FROM FAILING FLOPPY DISKS Frederick Cohen and Charles Preston Abstract As floppy disks and other similar media age, they may lose data due to a reduction in the retention of electromagnetic fields over time, mainly due to environmental factors. However, the coding techniques used to write data can be exploited along with the fault mechanisms themselves to successfully read data from failing floppy disks. This paper discusses the problem of recovering data from failing floppy disks and describes a practical example involving a case of substantial legal value. Keywords: Floppy disks, field density loss, weak bits, data recovery 1. Introduction This paper discusses a method for recovering data from floppy disks that are failing due to “weak bits.” It describes a repetitive read tech- nique that has successfully recovered data in forensic cases and dis- cusses the analysis of the results of repetitive reads in terms of yielding forensically-sound data. This technique is not new; however, neither the technique nor the analysis necessary to support its use in legal matters have been published. The case discussed in this paper involved a fifteen-year-old floppy disk, which contained the only copy of the binary version of a software pro- gram that was subject to intellectual property claims of sufficient value to warrant recovery beyond the means normally used by commercial re- covery firms. After attempts to read the disk by these firms had failed, the disk was given to the authors to use more rigorous and possibly destructive data recovery methods, subject to court approval.

  • A Study About Non-Volatile Memories
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 29 July 2016 doi:10.20944/preprints201607.0093.v1 1 Article 2 A Study about Non‐Volatile Memories 3 Dileep Kumar* 4 Department of Information Media, The University of Suwon, Hwaseong‐Si South Korea ; [email protected] 5 * Correspondence: [email protected] ; Tel.: +82‐31‐229‐8212 6 7 8 Abstract: This paper presents an upcoming nonvolatile memories (NVM) overview. Non‐volatile 9 memory devices are electrically programmable and erasable to store charge in a location within the 10 device and to retain that charge when voltage supply from the device is disconnected. The 11 non‐volatile memory is typically a semiconductor memory comprising thousands of individual 12 transistors configured on a substrate to form a matrix of rows and columns of memory cells. 13 Non‐volatile memories are used in digital computing devices for the storage of data. In this paper 14 we have given introduction including a brief survey on upcoming NVMʹs such as FeRAM, MRAM, 15 CBRAM, PRAM, SONOS, RRAM, Racetrack memory and NRAM. In future Non‐volatile memory 16 may eliminate the need for comparatively slow forms of secondary storage systems, which include 17 hard disks. 18 Keywords: Non‐volatile Memories; NAND Flash Memories; Storage Memories 19 PACS: J0101 20 21 22 1. Introduction 23 Memory is divided into two main parts: volatile and nonvolatile. Volatile memory loses any 24 data when the system is turned off; it requires constant power to remain viable. Most kinds of 25 random access memory (RAM) fall into this category.

  • Compare the Hard Disk with Floppy Disk Hard Disks Also Have Several
    Computer Fundamentals 1st stage Lec. (5 ) College of Computer Technology Dept.Information Networks Compare the hard disk with floppy disk 1- Hard disks store much more data per square inch of recording surface. 2- Because aluminum platters are less sensitive than floppy disks to variations in temperature and humidity and to mechanical stress, this allows the hard disks to have more tracks per radial inch and to write more bits per inch along each track. 3- Hard disks can transfer data faster than floppy disks. The transfer rate depends on the density of the stored data and the relational speed of disk. For floppy disks system the maximum transfer rate is typically between 30,000 and 150,000 characters per second. For hard disk system the maximum transfer rate between 200,000 and 2 million characters per second. 4- Access times are also faster for hard disks than floppy disks. The access time for a hard disk is about 25 to 70 msec, while the access time for floppy disks is about more than 100 msec. Whenever a computer is operating, its hard disk is spinning. Which means there is no need to wait for the disk to come up to its speed, while floppy disks cannot afford to turn constantly because their heads rub against the recording surface whenever the disk is turning, startup time needed to bring a floppy disk to operating speed is about 30 seconds. 5- Floppy disks are transportable while the hard disk is not transportable. Hard disks also have several disadvantages: 1) They tend to be noisier than floppy disk drives, because of their constant high-speed spinning.
