Difference between static and dynamic RAM?

Answer Posted / suraj

Dynamic RAM stores the information in the form of electric
charges. These charge is stored capatictor which, soon get
discharged as the time elapsed. However to restrict this we
use regenerating circuit,which is used to refersh the
charges. It requires less transistors to implement this
hence it is cheaper than static RAM.

Static RAM on the other hand, the information (each bit) is
flipfloped from 0 to 1. In this way there is no need of
refreashing. It requires more no. of transistor to implement
this.
Such RAM requires shorter read/wite cycles hence fastest.

IMPLEMENTATION OF CACHE MEMORY -----STATIC RAM IS USED
IMPLEMENTATION OF MAIN MEMORY -----DYNAMIC RAM IS USED
