2. Define a bus.
A bus is a set of conductive paths that serve to interconnect two or more functional
components of a system or several diverse systems.
10. What are the advantages of Static RAM compared to Dynamic RAM [DE-Apr/May-2010]
Static RAM:
Access time is less.
Fast operation.
Dynamic Ram
It consumes less power.
Cost is low.
13. What is access time and cycle time of memory [DE- Nov/Dec-2010]
Access Time: Time required to select the word and Read it
Cycle Time: Time required to complete the write operation
18. Give the difference between RAM and ROM [DE- Nov/Dec-2011]
Sl.No. RAM ROM
1. RAMs have both Read and write ROMs have only Read Operation
Capability
2. RAMs are volatile memories ROMs are Non-volatile memories
3. They lose stored data when the power is They retain stored data even if power
turned off is turned off
4. RAMs are available in both bipolar and ROMs are available in both bipolar
MOS technologies and MOS technologies
5. Types-SRAM,DRAM Types-PROM,EPROM,EEPROM
23. Draw the logic diagram of static RAM Cell and Bipolar RAM Cell [DE- Nov/Dec-2012]
33. What are the different types of Programmable Logic Devices [DE- May/June-2013]
1. Programmable Read Only Memory (PROM)
2. Programmable logic Array (PLA)
3. Programmable Array Logic (PAL)
37. What is programmable logic array? How does it differ from ROM? [DPSD- Nov/Dec-
2009,2015]
In some cases the number of don’t care conditions is excessive, it is more economical to
use a second type of LSI component called a PLA. A PLA is similar to a ROM in concept;
however it does not provide full decoding of the variables and does not generates all the
minterms as in the ROM.
Bipolar Unipolar
