Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-000979

An acronym for Column Address Strobe, a signal used in dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) to select a specific column within the memory array. It works in conjunction with the Row Address Strobe (RAS) to pinpoint the exact memory cell for data access. The timing of CAS relative to RAS is a key parameter in memory performance specifications.
