Storage is a subcategory of Memory ICs that covers integrated circuits designed to retain and manage digital data for later retrieval. These devices provide non-volatile or persistent data holding functions and support organized read/write access through defined memory architectures.
- Primary role: Store digital information in an addressable and controllable form.
- Key characteristics: Data retention behavior and structured access methods determined by the internal memory technology.
- Common device families: Flash memory, EEPROM, and other persistent memory IC types used for data storage.
