NOR FLASH 与 NAND FLASH介绍及区别（国外英文资料） We often say that the flash is just a general call, rather it is a volatile random access memory (NVRAM) commonly known as, is characterized by data does not disappear when the power is cut off, so can be used as the external storage. The so-called memory is volatile memory, which is divided into DRAM and SRAM, often referred to as DRAM, which is known as DDR, DDR2, SDR, EDO, etc. There are also different types of flash memory, which are divided into either the NOR and NAND types. The classification of the flash memory NOR type is very different from NAND type flash memory, for example, the nor-type flash memory is more like memory, has an independent address line and data line, but the price is more expensive and the capacity is smaller. And NAND type is more like a hard disk, I/O address line and data line is Shared with line, similar to the hard disk all the information transmitted by a hard line, compared and NAND and NOR flash memory, cost is lower, and larger capacity. Type NOR flash, therefore, is suitable for the occasion of frequent random reading and writing, often used to store the program code and directly run within the flash, mobile phone is to use type NOR flash memory, so the memory of the capacity is small; NAND flash memory is mainly used to store data, and our commonly used flash drives, such as flash drives and digital memory CARDS, are NAND flash memory. Here we also need to correct a concept, that is the speed of the flash memory is very limited, its operating speed, the frequency is much lower than the memory, and operation efficiency of NAND type flash memory is similar to the hard disk is much slower than the direct access memory. Therefore, dont assume that flash disk performance bottlenecks are at the interface, or even take it for granted that flash drive USES the USB2.0 interface to achieve significant performance improvements. Mentioned NAND type flash memory operation efficiency is low, it related to
