Abstract
DRAM and SRAM devices have a NAND interface mode (pins whose address and data are identical to one another are commonly used), directly being coupled to buses (an address/data bus and a control bus) of a NAND-type flash memory device that is connected to a microprocessor. Upon such a common interface mode, a DRAM device, an SRAM device, a NAND-type flash memory device, and a NOR-type flash memory device have the identical interface mode, and are independently (or individually) controlled by only one memory controller.
