How DRAMCs work

Post by Jonah Bron »

Yo 8)

I've been learning a lot about microprocessors, transistors and the like for the past couple of days. Cool stuff. I've been Googling and Googling (I just love that word) and can't find any good detailed diagrams on the configuration of transistors and such to create the Dynamic Random-access Memory controller. I understand the general concept of the actual memory, and how transistors are used in unison with capacitors, but can't figure out about how that is accessed. Links please?

Thanks

I dont understand what do you mean by word accessing. This is how it goes in microprocessors. All the transistors in unison with capacitors are there to reduce the noise in the signals and keep the voltage at a constant level. Anything like +5v means 1 and -5v means 0. And this how machine language is identified. The rest is there is a binary language with which you programme these set of codes to the keys and produce some hexadecimal values. And on this hexadecimal values on which the OS is built. The best link I can give you is
IEEE, wiki

Thanks. I meant the infrastructure on the chip that routs the actual signal to the correct convergence point in the RAM chip.
