Memory address

Updated: 05/02/2021 by Computer Hope

A memory address is an exact assigned location in RAM used to track where information is stored. On a single computer memory IC (integrated circuit), there can be 1 million, 2 million, or more memory addresses that can be accessed at randomly, which is why memory is called RAM (random-access memory).
