Memristor – The Latest Change of PC World

Memrister

The memristor, a microscopic component that can “remember” electrical states even when turned off. It’s expected to be far cheaper and faster than flash storage.

The memristor is just one of the incredible technological advances sending shock waves through the world of computing.

Other innovations in the works are more down-to-earth, but they also carry watershed significance.

Memristors will theoretically be cheaper and far faster than flash memory, and allow far greater memory densities.

They could also replace RAM chips as we know them, so that, after you turn off your computer, it will remember exactly what it was doing when you turn it back on, and return to work instantly.

This lowering of cost and consolidating of components may lead to affordable, solid-state computers that fit in your pocket and run many times faster than today’s PCs.
