ASIC knowers: I know that SRAM is more expensive per bit compared to DRAM because each cell requires a whole flip-flop and therefore consumes more die area. but when I think through the total number of transistors (and die area) required for an 8Gbit SRAM, it seems like it should be roughly comparable ta a typical dual core ARM SoC that costs 2-3 orders of magnitude less. is this purely a sales volume issue, or is there a more fundamental manufacturing constraint that makes them so expensive?
