DRAM is made with cells that store data as charge on capacitors. The presence or absence of charge on a capacitor is interpreted as a binary 1 or 0. Because capacitors have a natural tendency to discharge, dynamic RAMs require periodic charge refreshing to maintain data storage. The term dynamic refers to this tendency of the stored chrage to leak away, even with power continuously applied.
SRAM is a digital device, using the same logic elements used in the processor. In a SRAM, binary values are stored using traditional flip-flop logic-gate configurations. A static RAM will hold its data as long as power is supplied to it.

∙ 14y agoSRAM - Static Random Access Memory
use 6 transistor to store data .
Data remains there in the ram when an electronic flow is going
DRAM - Dynamic Random Access Memory
use 1 transistor and 2 capacitor
the capacitors is used to store the data
So the machine should refresh the data periodically
to keep the data.

both are semiconductor memory. semiconductor means that both need continuous voltage or charge to sustain their data.
SRAM used for cache , and store data in the flip flop, no need for refreshing , fast access but more expensive.
DRAM used for main memory , and store data in capacitor, need for refreshing , slow access but less expensive.

What is the difference between DRAM and SRAM in terms of pin diagram?
dram is material gives sound and sram is the sound itself
What is the difference between DRAM and SRAM in terms of characterstics such as size?
•Dynamic cell (DRAM) -Simpler to build, smaller -More dense -Less expensive -Needs refresh -Larger memory units •Static (SRAM) -Faster -Cache
What are different types of rams?

Ram is divided into two categories what are they?
DRAM and SRAM
What advantage does DRAM have over SRAM?
Dynamic Random Access Memory contents need to be continuously refreshed. When its contents are being refreshed, memory can not be read from nor write to. Another point to note is that DRAM is cheap to manufacture (This could be the only advantage it has to SRAM).Where as in Static Random Access Memory, memory need not to be continuosly refreshed and therefore memory can be accessed at any time. SRAM is expensive to manufacture.
What are forms of ram?
SRAM DRAM SDRAM XRAM is not a form of RAM.
What are all forms of RAM?
SRAM DRAM SDRAM XRAM is not a form of RAM.
What are the two main types of ram memory sram and dram?
DDR and DDR2
How would you write about SRAM?
---SRAM--- Static random access memory (SRAM) is a type of semiconductor memory where the word static indicates that it, unlike dynamic RAM (DRAM), does not need to be periodically refreshed, as SRAM uses bistable latching circuitry to store each bit. SRAM exhibits data remanence, but is still volatile in the conventional sense that data is eventually lost when the memory is not powered. The term SDRAM, which stands for synchronous DRAM, should not be confused with SRAM.
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.
