Computer Hardware Terms, Glossary and Dictionary

Multibank DRAM (MDRAM), a memory technology developed by MoSys Inc., utilizes small banks of DRAM (32 KB each) in an array, where each bank has its own I/O port that feeds into a common internal bus. Because of this design, data can be read or written to multiple banks simultaneously, which makes it much faster than conventional DRAM.
