Excerpt from Microsoft Computer Dictionary (5th Edn):

CMOS n. 1.Acronym for complementary metal-oxide

semiconductor. A semiconductor technology in which

pairs of metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors

(MOSFETs), one N-type and one P-type, are integrated on

a single silicon chip. Generally used for RAM and switching

applications, these devices have very high speed and

extremely low power consumption. They are, however,

easily damaged by static electricity. 2. The battery-

backed memory used to store parameter values

needed to boot PCs, such as the type of disks and the

amount of memory, as well as the clock/calendar time.
