  2. 1 day ago · RAM is normally associated with volatile types of memory where stored information is lost if power is removed. The two main types of volatile random-access semiconductor memory are static random-access memory (SRAM) and dynamic random-access memory (DRAM).

  3. Sep 5, 2024 · What is DRAM? DRAM stores the binary information in the form of electric charges applied to capacitors. The stored information on the capacitors tends to lose over a period of time and thus the capacitors must be periodically recharged to retain their usage. DRAM requires refresh time. The main memory is generally made up of DRAM ...

  4. Sep 17, 2024 · Dynamic random access memory (DRAM) stores data in a capacitor. These capacitors leak charge so the information fades unless the charge is refreshed periodically. Because of this refresh requirement, it is a dynamic memory as opposed to SRAM and other static memory.

  5. Sep 9, 2024 · DRAM, or Dynamic Random Access Memory, is a type of volatile computer memory that is used for storing data and machine code that a computer processor needs to function. Unlike non-volatile memory like hard drives and solid-state drives, DRAM requires constant electrical power to maintain the stored data.

  6. Sep 3, 2024 · Dynamic RAM (DRAM) DRAM relies on a single transistor and capacitor based memory cell. As the capacitor leaks charge over time, the memory controller must periodically refresh every bit in DRAM to maintain the stored data values. Despite the refresh overhead, DRAM offers better density and lower cost than SRAM.

  7. Sep 13, 2024 · DRAM: It requires about one transistor and one capacitor for a memory cell, which makes it low-cost and large-capacity, but it needs to be refreshed and the speed is slower than SRAM.
