Definitions for "Electrically erasable programmable read-only memory"
See EEPROM.
An EPROM that can be erased or updated by electrical signal, often done remotely.
A memory chip that maintains its contents without electrical power, and whose contents can be erased and reprogrammed either within the computer or from an external source. EEPROMs are used where the application requires stable storage without power, but where the chip may have to be reprogrammed.
