Differences between DRAM and SRAM?
Answer Posted / harishankar
SRAM
>Short for static random access memory, and pronounced ess-
ram.
>SRAM is a type of memory that is faster and more reliable
than the more common DRAM
>SRAM's store bits (1's or 0's) in memory cells that are
basically flip flops.To store 1 bit of information about 6
transistors are used
>it does not required refreshing
>it is more costlier than DRAM in terms of cost per bit,
DRAM
>DRAM stands for dynamic random access memory, a type of
memory used in most personal computers
>In DRAM to store 1 bit of information 1 transistor and 1
capacitor is used.
>The information is stored in the capacitor in form of
charge, so it required refreshing to retain the charge or
data in the capacitor.
