Static random-access memory (SRAM) if a form of memory that uses latches to store information. It is volatile and loses information when power is removed but unlike dynamic does not require refreshing to retain information. This comes at the cost of higher complexity and less density than DRAM, but allows static and low frequency / power use which is important in many systems.

Why does this SRAM chip have more physical bits than declared by the manufacturer?

I noticed while scanning the datasheet for a 23K256 SRAM chip that it has 32768 bytes (+262Kbit.) The manufacturer clearly identifies this chip as 256Kbit. … Can bits on the SRAM (or maybe bytes) get damaged over time? …
