Module 5. Digital techniques / Electronic instrument systems

Data is usually stored in

  • RAM.
  • ROM.
  • ALU.

Explanation

Working data that the computer reads and writes during operation is held in RAM, which allows fast random read and write access. ROM holds fixed program or configuration data that is not normally changed, and the ALU is a processing block, not a storage location.

josephedwinpugh asking:

I have found that other platforms have differing answers for this question. Surely the type of data has to be specified here? RAM is a scratchpad, volatile memory, and ROM is non volatile and permanent, for start up programming etc. Could someone help clarify it better? Or is it poor questioning?
