What is NRAM?

NRAM is actually an abbreviated word which is described as Nano RAM. It is defined as the type of proprietary technology of digital computers memory and a company is working behind its development which is known as Nantero. This computer memory is also categorized by the company among the list of non-volatile RAMs (Random Access Memory).

This type of computer memory is being prepared on a concept of carbon nanotubes that are mechanically positioned on the substrate of chip-like device. As per the theory behind the production of this memory type, it is said by its creating organization that high density of storage memories is provided with the usage of small-sized nanotubes to make this memory. NRAM is actually the short name of this memory type which has been given to it by its creating organization Nantero.

Carbon nanotubes well-known effect is actually behind the main concept of developing this latest technology by the Nantero Company where flat surface is used to slightly separating or touching the crossed nanotubes in the vertical direction which is quite as same as to the substrate. Some nanotubes are used in a single cell of NRAM in this latest technology developing by Nantero.

It is said as per the theory of its creator that the same density is being carried by their project as it is shown or generated by the DRAM. There are several capacitors that exist in the memory known as DRAM. Power is not required by the Nano-RAM to refresh itself as it is a compulsory requirement in DRAM.
