Question

Which one of the following is a storage element in SRAM?

(a) capacitor

(b) inductor

(c) transistor

(d) resistor

I have been asked this question by my college professor while I was bunking the class.

This interesting question is from DRAM in chapter Memory Systems of Embedded Systems

Answer 1

The correct choice is (c) transistor

The explanation is: Four to six transistors are used to store a single bit of data and form a flip-flop logic gate and thus SRAM is faster in accessing data.
