(electrically erasable PROM [programmable read-only memory]) (n ) A nonvolatile PROM that can be written to as well as read from In SunTM workstations, an EEPROM is used to hold information about the current system configuration, alternate boot paths, and so on See also boot PROM, ID PROM, NVRAM
Acronym for electrically erasable programmable read-only memory Pronounced double-ee-prom or e-e-prom, an EEPROM is a special type of PROM that can be erased by exposing it to an electrical charge Like other types of PROM, EEPROM retains its contents even when the power is turned off Also like other types of ROM, EEPROM is not as fast as RAM EEPROM is similar to flash memory (sometimes called flash EEPROM) The principal difference is that EEPROM requires data to be written or erased one byte at a time whereas flash memory allows data to be written or erased in blocks This makes flash memory faster
(Electronically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory): The memory that stores the datalogger operating system and user programs
(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) - A memory chip that retains data content after power has been removed EEPROM can be erased and reprogrammed within the computer or externally
electrically erasable programmable read-only memory EPROM that can be erased using electrical signals applied to specific pins Most often used to hold small sets of infrequently accessed parameters
Electronically Eraseable Programmable Read Only Memory like ROM cannot be erased unless it recieves proper erasing signals from the mother deivce Commonly used for BIOS's of motherboards
Electrically-Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory A non-volatile memory chip (memory is retained when the power is turned off) with the capability of selective erasure of information through special electrical stimulus
Electrically Erasable, Programmable, Read-Only Memory chip EEPROMs differ from DRAMs in that the memory stays in even if electrical power is lost Also, the memory can be erased and reprogrammed
/ee-ee-prom/ ``Electrically Erasable Programmable Read- Only Memory'' - A type of non-volatile memory chip that can be both programmed and erased electrically
(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) Pronounced "ee-ee-prom " A special type of read-only memory (ROM) that can be erased and written electrically EEPROM is frequently used for system-board BIOSes so that a computer's BIOS can be updated just like a piece of software (See also ROM, EPROM, and BIOS )
Electrically Erasable Read Only Memory VERY similar to an EPROM, except the chip can be erased by electricy, rather than with ultraviolet light Gotta look up if an EEPROM can be reprogrammed one byte at a time or if the entire chip is erased at once
Electrically erasable, programmable, read-only memory EEPROMs differ from DRAMs in that the memory is saved even if electrical power is lost Additionally, the memory can be erased and reprogrammed repeatedly
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory A memory chip that is programmable, reusable, and able to hold its content until erased using electric current Source: TE
