Line 7:
A typical RDRAM system is composed of 3 main elements :
 
* a controller, which act as the channel master. This partrole resideis infulfilled by the [[RDRAM Interface|RI]] with the help of the RAC (Rambus ASIC Cell).
* the channel, which is a synchronous bus connecting the RDRAM devices together.
* RDRAM modules, each containing memory banks, and some registers. RDRAM devices are daisy-chained via serial signals SIn/SOut.
 
TODO: insert a small diagram

The N64 system implements the "Base RDRAM" protocol, which is the earliest version of RDRAM protocol. Historical note, latter version of the protocol are "Concurrent RDRAM" and "Direct RDRAM".
