RAM is normally decoded with the help of Decoder chips. Is there any other techniques to decode larger RAM? Is the decoding technique is similar for both RAM and ROM, if there are differences what are that?

Hi faraz,
I'm not sure I fully understand your question... SRAM & PC100 have a decoder on the board (which makes them proprietary)... EDO (DRAM) does not require a decoder on the memory board... are you referring to the decoder on the memory board itself (as in the SRAM and PC100) or a decoder which may be integrated into the memory controller?... not sure I understand why you are comparing decoding when it comes to RAM and ROM.. they are two totally separate memory issues...
