SRAM Memory Chips - (125 companies)
Static random access memory (SRAM) chips do not need to be refreshed like DRAM chips. This makes SRAM chips faster and more reliable. Find more about about SRAM Memory Chips
Monostable Multivibrators - (23 companies)
Monostable multivibrators, also known as one-shots, are digital devices similar to flip-flops, but with only one stable state where they remain until triggered by an input signal. Once triggered, the output is switched to the opposite state. Search by Specification | Find more about about Monostable Multivibrators
