Abstract

The Model B Rev 2.0 Raspberry Pi has 512 MB of SDRAM, while the older revisions and remaining models have 256 MB. Contrast this to the AVR class ATmega168p, which has 1 KB of static RAM. SDRAM is synchronous dynamic random access memory, which synchronizes with the system bus for improved performance. It uses a form of pipelining to gain this advantage.
