COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS

Detailed explanation-1: -Read-only memory (ROM) is a type of non-volatile memory used in computers and other electronic devices. Data stored in ROM cannot be electronically modified after the manufacture of the memory device.

Detailed explanation-2: -Types of ROM ROM may sometimes be called maskROM (MROM). MROM is a form of read-only memory that is static and programmed into an included circuit by the manufacturer.

Detailed explanation-3: -EEPROM is a type of non-volatile ROM that enables individual bytes of data to be erased and reprogrammed. That is why EEPROM chips are known as byte erasable chips. EEPROM is usually used to store small amounts of data in computing and other electronic devices.

Detailed explanation-4: -EEPROM. The most advanced form of ROM is electrically erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM). Data on EEPROM chips can be erased and rewritten by applying local electric fields to the chip. This makes it possible to selectively edit the data rather than needing to erase and rewrite everything on the chip, as with EPROM.

Detailed explanation-5: -Because ROM is read-only, it cannot be changed; it is permanent and non-volatile, meaning it also holds its memory even when power is removed.
