| | Read-only memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Hence the BIOS or a bootloader for a computer is often stored in ROM. | | | Read-only memory (ROM) is a class of storage media used in computers and other electronic devices. | | | Diode matrix ROM, which was used in small amounts in many computers in the 1960s as well as keyboard encoders for terminals. |

| | Read-Only Memory |
| | ROM information is etched onto tiny microchips inside the computer, and it can be read by the computer, but not changed. | | | ROM chips are found almost everywhere in a computer system, from the basic input/output system (BIOS) to peripheral devices like printers and scanners. | | | A further refinement in ROM technology is EEPROM (Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory). |

| | ROM (READ ONLY MEMORY) |
| | ROM chips are also used to store programs for hand-held computers. | | | For example, ROM BIOS chips are used to store information for starting up your computer. | | | Once data is programmed into the ROM chip, its contents cannot be altered. |

| | Programmable read-only memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A programmable read-only memory (PROM) or field programmable read-only memory (FPROM) is a form of digital memory where the setting of each bit is locked by a fuse or antifuse. | | | As these read-only memories were both erasable, programmable and re-programmable, they constitute the first production implementation of the concept of EPROM and EEPROM memories, in manufacture prior to 1963. | | | Read-only means that, unlike the case with conventional memory, the programming cannot be changed (at least not by the end user). |

| | Read-Only Memory from FOLDOC |
| | ROM is also used for storage of the lowest level bootstrap software (firmware) in a computer. | | | ROM is inherently non-volatile storage - it retains its contents even when the power is switched off, in contrast to RAM. | | | In its most general sense, the term might be used for any storage system whose contents cannot be altered, such as a gramophone record or a printed book; however, the term is most often applied to semiconductor integrated circuit memories, of which there are several types, and CD-ROM. |

| | read-only memory - a Whatis.com definition - see also: ROM |
| | ROM is "built-in" computer memory containing data that normally can only be read, not written to. | | | Unlike a computer's random access memory (RAM), the data in ROM is not lost when the computer power is turned off. | | | ROM contains the programming that allows your computer to be "booted up" or regenerated each time you turn it on. |

| | Early microcomputers lacked ROM memory and had to be started by entering a bootstrap program, or sometimes the whole program that the user would want to run, directly into the computers memory via switchs on the front panel. | | | ROM (Read Only Memory) would play an important role in making computers easier to use. | | | The EPROM (Erasable Programable Read Only Memory) would allow designers to program ROMs themselves and even erase them by exposing them to ultravoilet light (this is why EPROMs have a clear window on top). |

| | Read only memory (ROM): |
| | To use the ROM to implement a logic function, the address lines are used as the variable inputs, and the contents of the memory are the function values. | | | Usually the memory has a word length of more than 1 bit; typically 4 or 8 bits, so several functions can be implemented simultaneously. | | | Often, today, devices requiring 8 or more input variables are implemented using a ROM. |

| | Read-Only Memory (ROM) |
| | ROM: A regular ROM is constructed from hard-wired logic, encoded in the silicon itself, much the way that a processor is. It is designed to perform a specific function and cannot be changed. | | | Continuing the "CD" analogy, this technology is analogous to a reusable CD-RW. | | | Read-only memory is most commonly used to store system-level programs that we want to have available to the PC at all times. |

| | Read Only Memory (ROM) |
| | The way a ROM chip works necessitates the programming of complete data when the chip is created. | | | Flash memory works much faster than traditional EEPROMs because instead of erasing one byte at a time, it erases a block or the entire chip, and then rewrites it. | | | For this reason, developers created a type of ROM known as programmable read-only memory (PROM). |
