Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cache memory is extremely fast memory that is built into a computer’s central processing unit. Cache memory is a small-sized type of volatile computer memory that provides high-speed data access to a processor and stores frequently used computer programs, applications and data.

Detailed explanation-2: -The small, extremely fast ram’s are called Cache Memory.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cache memory operates between 10 to 100 times faster than RAM, requiring only a few nanoseconds to respond to a CPU request. The name of the actual hardware that is used for cache memory is high-speed static random access memory (SRAM).

Detailed explanation-4: -The RAM that is used for the temporary storage is known as the cache. Since accessing RAM is significantly faster than accessing other media like hard disk drives or networks, caching helps applications run faster due to faster access to data.

Detailed explanation-5: -RAM (Random Access Memory) is the hardware in a computing device where the operating system (OS), application programs and data in current use are kept so they can be quickly reached by the device’s processor.
