Toshiba Develops Mobile RAM, Cuts Power Use By Up To 85 Percent

In smartphone devices, the RAM is the primary reason for battery drains since the RAM uses power even when the phone is idle. Recent apps require a lot of memory and hence, the battery drains out very quickly. Toshiba has developed a new SRAM which would be able to reduce unnecessary wastage of power. This new product would be able to predict when and how much power is required, and would sleep when no power is demanded. Toshiba claims and estimates that the SRAM would use 27 percent less power while it's active and 85 percent less power when idle.
Toshiba isn't sure when it would be ready with the product but hopefully it would soon enter the mobile industry.
