PORTIBM PC Portable (uses same BIOS as XT) 0800-08FF - I/O port access registers for extended CMOS RAMA small amount (typically 64 or 128 bytes) of memory in the system's real-time clock chip that is preserved by the clock's battery and is used for storing configuration information. See also Real-Time Clock. or SRAM(Static Random Access Memory) RAM which typically consists of one flip-flop per bit of memory. Unlike DRAMs, static RAM retains its contents as long as power is applied. Because there is no need to refresh the contents of memory addresses which are read, SRAM is faster than DRAM, but it is more expensive and typically is available in much smaller sizes than DRAM because each bit occupies more space on the chip. See also DRAM. (256 bytes at a time) Note: sometimes plain text can be seen here
