Double Data Rate Memory
Double Data Rate DDR memory controllers are used to drive DDR SDRAM, where data is transferred on the rising and falling access of the memory clock of the system. DDR memory controllers are significantly more complicated than Single Data Rate controllers, but allow for twice the data to be transferred without increasing the clock rate or increasing the bus width to the memory cell.

Famous quotes containing the words double, data, rate and/or memory:
“The worst feature of this double consciousness is, that the two lives, of the understanding and of the soul, which we lead, really show very little relation to each other; never meet and measure each other: one prevails now, all buzz and din; and the other prevails then, all infinitude and paradise; and, with the progress of life, the two discover no greater disposition to reconcile themselves.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“At the rate science proceeds, rockets and missiles will one day seem like buffalo—slow, endangered grazers in the black pasture of outer space.”
—Bernard Cooper (b. 1936)
“The best memory is not as good as pale ink.”
—Chinese proverb.
