How memory is stored in memories like SD Card, USB flash drive, etc. that the data stays even if removed to the device?
This latches ( Gated Latch, SR Latch, and Flip Flops) can only store memory IF there is electric current flowing, but everything will go OFF if no current.
I wonder how memory is stored in memories ...

Why we used 128 bytes internal RAM memory instead of 256 bytes in 8051?
... since using 7-bit in 8-bit address bus wastes one wire.
In 8051 there is a 8-bit address bus for internal RAM out of which we just use 7 wires making it addressable to just 128 byte locations, why ...

Creating ping-pong buffer using a simple dual port RAM
In this buffer, we have two sections. Let's call these A and B. At one time we write into one but read from the other. So we write into A and read from B, or we write into B and read from A. We can ...

How to handle unused 32-bit data, dqs and dbi on DDR4 SODIMM module
In a design, I have used a DDR4 SODIMM module, which has 64-bit data, thus 8 groups of data (DQ), DQS and DBI.
However, I will only use the lower 32 bit on the module, thus have to handle the ...
