Understanding Semiconductor Memory Chips

Understanding Semiconductor Memory Chips

Memory is divided into two main categories: volatile memory (RAM) and non-volatile memory (external storage). The former loses data immediately when power is cut, while the latter is unaffected by power outages and retains data persistently. Classification of semiconductor memory and global market share – 1 – SRAM (Static Random Access Memory) and DRAM (Dynamic … Read more
