Main memory is the storage that is directly available to the CPU of a computer and is made3 up of RAM and ROM. RAM's (Random Access Memory) purpose is to hold the data and instructions temporarily which the CPU will process. ROM's (Read Only Memory) function is to hold data necessary for starting up the computer permanently , whose contents cannot be changed by the user.

What does DRAM stand for in computer terms?
DRAM stands for Dynamic Random Access Memory
Why is DRAM analog device and SRAM digital device?
This is incorrect. DRAM is a digital device, and so is SRAM. DRAM and SRAM serve the same functions- temporary storage space (or random access memory, hence 'RAM') in different ways. DRAM data is typically refreshed every so often, uses more power than SRAM and is much slower, but also much cheaper and easier to manufacture in huge sizes. SRAM, such as the cache on CPUs, is much smaller and faster, and stores data until it is cleared or the computer is turned off (and in some cases, even without power) but is extremely expensive.
Can structures be passed to the functions by value?
Structures can be passed to the functions by value. But it has to be copied to another location. Hence wastage of memory
The max number of functions you have used in a c program?
There is no limit to the number of functions you can have in a program. The only practical limit is dependant upon the amount of memory you have available in order to load the compiled program, whether it has 4 functions or 4 trillion functions. If the program makes use of dynamic libraries, then the amount of available memory reduces accordingly.
List the advantages of dynamic RAM compared with static RAM?
Static RAM and dynamic RAM are two available types of computer RAM, or Random Access Memory. One advantage of static RAM is speed, while a disadvantage is cost. An advantage of dynamic RAM is storage space, while a disadvantage would be speed.
Does DRAM Memory operate asynchronously?
No. Newer DRAM memory types operate synchronously.
Is a Dram a volatile or non volatile?
DRAM is a volatile memory
Is dram a volatile or non volatile?
DRAM is a volatile memory
What functions of dram versus sram of a computer?
Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) entries are constant and fixed, the information stored in this type of memory does not degrade over time. Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) slowly leaks over time and must be refreshed from time to time.
What is the memory DRAM?
2.83
What is the full form of dram?
DRAM is dynamic RAM or, if you prefer, dynamic random-access memory.
The main difference between sdram and dram is that dram is?
The main difference between Synchronous random access memory, SDRAM and Dynamic Random Access Memory, DRAM is that SDRAM is synchronous while DRAM is asynchronous. As such, SDRAM is efficient in retrieving and storing data than DRAM.
What does DRAM stand for in computer terms?
DRAM stands for Dynamic Random Access Memory
Which type of memory is the main memory installed as DIMMs on a motherboard?
DRAM
Can you explain the difference between Dram and SDram?
Dram and Sdram are two different types of memory.
Newer dram memory operate asynchronously?
Fales
What does DRAM stand for?
dynamic random access memory
