Dynamic ram is the template for all modern memory types. It fulfills the need for a fast, short-term memory solution. This memory needs to be constantly refreshed with an electric charge to keep its information stored. When the computer is turn off all data is lost.
DRAM is used for lots of things as I learned at micron, IPODS, CD players, automotives, cameras etc. DRAM is probably used for all modern day memory types. It has a memory space that gives your processor very fast access so it can be written down without slowing down the system. The memory is stored in different places so the data will not be lost.
From Wikipedia, it says that this memory is refreshable. And it’s also a serial access memory which takes things in a sequential order. Another thing that is different from them is their size. One is bigger than the other. We saw how much bigger the other one was on the tour.
What we say at Micron was the little robots or whatever running overhead picking up wafers and taking them to testing stations.
