EEPROM (also written E2pROM and

pronounced"e-e-prom","double-e prom","e-

squared", or simply"e-prom") stands for

Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-

Only Memory and is a type of non-volatile

memory used in computers and other

electronic devices to store small amounts of

data that must be saved when power is

removed, e.g., calibration tables or device

configuration.

Unlike bytes in most other kinds of non-

volatile memory, individual bytes in a

traditional EEPROM can be independently

read, erased, and re-written.
