The RAM used in most sensor nodes is embedded within the microcontroller 
package itself.  In the case of the TMote Sky, this is the MSP430F1611 part.  
Go to www.ti.com/msp430 and find two documents: the Family User's Guide for 
MSP430x1xx and the data sheet for the MSP430x15x/MSP430x16x/MSP430x161x 
parts.
