EETimes Design: QDR SRAM and RLDRAM: A comparative analysis
Today's high-speed networking applications require high-bandwidth and high-density memory solutions. Typical networking line cards require memories for a variety of operations that include packet buffering, table lookup, and queue management among a host of other functions.

Choosing the right memory solution is pivotal to ensuring that the memory bandwidth is not a bottleneck on the throughput of an application. This article discusses memory solutions suitable for networking-specifically, Quad Data Rate Static RAM (QDR SRAMs) and Reduced Latency Dynamic RAM (RLDRAM)-and compares them in relation to the applications they are best suited for.
