Characteristics of Computer Memory

1. Electrical Characteristics

The voltage and current requirements depend on the manufacturing technology of the device. The voltage level is not of major concern because most of the semiconductor memory devices operate at TTL voltage levels.

2. Speed

There is a finite time delay between the application of address and the availability of stable and accurate data on the data lines. This memory delay depends on the manufacturing technology and other factors such as size.
