[ɪkˈstɛndɪd ˈdeɪtə aʊt ˈmɛməri]
noun
memória EDO
1. A type of computer RAM (Random Access Memory) technology developed in the 1990s that improved upon Fast Page Mode (FPM) memory by allowing the CPU to access data more efficiently with reduced latency
Extended Data Out memory was commonly used in computers from 1995 to 1998 before being replaced by SDRAM.
A memória EDO era comumente usada em computadores de 1995 a 1998 antes de ser substituída por SDRAM.
2. A RAM variant that keeps data valid on the output pins even after the memory access cycle ends, enabling faster data retrieval
EDO memory improved system performance by approximately 10-15% compared to older FPM memory types.
A memória EDO melhorou o desempenho do sistema em aproximadamente 10-15% em comparação com tipos de memória FPM mais antigos.
This is a technical term primarily used in computing and IT contexts. While not commonly used in everyday conversation, it appears in historical discussions about computer hardware evolution. The technology is considered obsolete in modern computing, making references to it primarily academic or historical in nature. The acronym 'EDO' is more commonly used than the full term in technical discussions.
