Question 1 of 27070

What is the name of the semiconductor memory IC whose digital data can be written or read, and whose memory word address can be accessed randomly?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Read vs. write capabilities of different memory types • Meaning of random access in memory (accessing any word directly by address) • Difference between read-only and read/write semiconductor memories

💭 Think About

• Which option describes a memory that allows both reading and writing data during normal operation, not just one-time programming? • Which of these memories allows you to access any location directly by its address, instead of having to move through data in sequence? • Look at the full names: which one explicitly mentions the way data is accessed, and which ones emphasize "read-only" or one-time programmability?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which memories are truly read-only during normal use (cannot be freely rewritten). • Verify which memory type is commonly used as main working memory in computers because it is both readable and writable and randomly accessible. • Check which expansion of the acronym includes the term "Random-Access" and what that implies about how data is read and written.
