CMOS runs on about a millionth of an amp of electrical current. This efficiency allows it to store configuration data for a long time (maybe years)‚ powered only from either low-voltage dry cell or lithium batteries. On newer PCs‚ the CMOS battery is located on the motherboard. On older systems‚ like the Amstrad 1512‚ a pair of AA batteries mounted on the top of the system powered the CMOS. The function of CMOS RAM is to store information your computer needs when it boots up‚ such as hard disk

Fig. 3 The hybrid Nano Memristor/CMOS architecture [23]. This hybrid Nano/CMOS architecture is showing great promises in Spin-Transfer Torque Magnetic RAM (STT-MRAM)‚ which is well suited for many mainstream applications‚ especially memory storage devices [26‚ 27‚ 25‚ and 28]. By utilizing this architecture in this application‚ the size and the speed of this technology would be improved greatly. In addition‚ the read and write time for these architectures is nearly 120 picoseconds [29‚ 30]. The
