Synchronous DRAM

   <storage> (SDRAM, Synchronous DRAM) A form of {DRAM} which
   adds a separate {clock} signal to the control signals.  SDRAM
   chips can contain more complex {state machines}, allowing them
   to support "burst" access modes that clock out a series of
   successive {bits} (similar to the {nibble mode DRAM}).
