There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.

Cache memory is random access memory (RAM) that a computer microprocessor can access more quickly than it can access regular RAM. As the microprocessor processes data, it looks first in the cache memory and if it finds the data there (from a previous reading of data), it does not have to do the more time-consuming reading of data from larger memory. Cache Memory generally comes in smaller size (3MB, 6MB etc) than the RAM (512 MB, 1GB,2GB.....)
Register memory are smaller in size than cache memory and registers are faster than cache..Cache memory store the frequently used data from main memory..
No cache memory is not visible.....
sram is used for cache for cache memory.
The maximum size of a cache memory is theoretically equal to the amount of primary memory(RAM).Like Cache only memory architecture where the whole memory space is filled up with the cache only.
Cache Memory is needed because Hardware implements cache as a block of memory for temporary storage likely to be used again.
Cache memory is smaller and quicker, primary memory larger and slower.
memory cache is on memory RAM, disk Cache is on the hard drive. They make things to get faster. For instance Google Earth use this disk cache to show you offline images.

cache memory is neither main memory nor second memory. DDR's are Main memory and Disk is second memory.
