Option 4 : Sequential access memory

  • Cache memory, also called CPU memory, is a random access memory that a computer microprocessor can access more quickly than it can access regular RAM.
  • This volatile memory is typically integrated directly with the CPU chip or placed on a separate chip that has a separate bus interconnect with the CPU.
  • The basic purpose of cache memory is to store program instructions that are frequently re-referenced by software during operation.
  • Fast access to these instructions increases the overall speed of the software program.
