The working place in computer where all data is stored is called
memory. There are small cells called bit. In these cell data is stored
in the form of 0 & 1. Its unit is bytes. A memory cell may be defined
as a device which can store a symbol selected from a set of
symbols
A memory is just like a human brain. It is used to store data and
instruction. Computer memory is the storage space in computer
where data is to be processed and instructions required for
processing are stored.
The memory is divided into large number of small parts. Each part is
called cell. Each location or cell has a unique address which varies
from zero to memory size minus one.
For example if computer has 64k words, then this memory unit has
64 * 1024=65536 memory location. The address of these locations
varies from 0 to 65535.
Memory Units
There are two types of
memory units
•Primary Memory/Main
Memory
•Secondary Memory
Primary Memory
(Main Memory)
• Primary memory holds only those data and
instructions on which computer is currently working.
It has limited capacity and data get lost when power
is switched off.
• It is generally made up of semiconductor device.
These memories are not as fast as registers. The
data and instruction required to be processed earlier
reside in main memory. It is divided into two
subcategories RAM and ROM.
• Primary Memory consists of RAM (random access
memory) and ROM (read only memory). In this type
of primary memory data is not stored permanently,
Primary Memory (Main Memory)
Characteristic of Primary
Memory
•These are semiconductor memories.
•It known as main memory.
•Usually volatile memory.
•Data is lost in case power is switch off.
•It is working memory of the computer.
•Faster than secondary memories.
•A computer cannot run without primary memory.
Secondary Memory
• This type of memory is also known as external memory or nonvolatile. It is slower than main memory. These are used for storing
Data/Information permanently.
• CPU directly does not access these memories instead they are
accessed via input-output routines. Contents of secondary memories
are first transferred to main memory, and then CPU can access it. For
example: disk, CD-ROM,DVD etc.
• Secondary memory (or secondary storage) is the slowest and
cheapest form of memory. It cannot be processed directly by the CPU.
It must first be copied into primary storage (also known as RAM ).
Secondary memory devices include magnetic disks like hard drives
and floppy disks; optical disks such as CDs and CD ROMs; and magnetic
tapes, which were the first forms of secondary memory.
Characteristic of
Secondary Memory
•
•
•
•

These are magnetic and optical memories.
It is known as backup memory.
It is non-volatile memory.
Data is permanently stored even if power is
switched off.
• It is used for storage of the data in the computer.
• Computer may run without secondary memory.
• Slower than primary memories.
