Best Answer

EPROM or Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory was invented by Engr. Dov Frohman. It is a ROM-type chip that can hold data from 10-20 years. It is different from PROM because it can be programmed more than once. An EPROM programming is erased only through exposure to ultra violet light. The EPROM is configured or reconfigured using an EPROM programmer.

How come 99 4runner will not start when using a copy key?

The original key has a chip that is programmed to start the vehicle. A copy key will unlock the doors but will not start the vehicle because it does not have a chip in it. If the copy DOES have a chip, it need to be programmed in order to start the vehicle. You may need a key with a security chip in it, check dealer

A ROM chip that can be programmed once is known as a what?

PROMs can only be programmed once. They are more fragile than ROMs. A jolt of static electricity can easily cause fuses in the PROM to burn out, changing essential bits from 1 to 0.


What is a type of chip from which data can be erased by expoure to ultraviolate light?

A type of PROM (Programmable Read-Only Memory) called EPROM (Eraseable Programmable Read-Only Memory) is a chip that, after being programmed, can be exposed to strong ultraviolet light in order to erase it. They're recognized by the transparent window on the top surface through which you can see the silicon chip. It's through this window that UV enters to erase the chip.


What are the difference between FPGA and DSP?

The major difference is that, a DSP is a chip which can be programmed based on our requirement, whereas an FPGA can be programmed to design a chip for our own purpose. FPGA can also be reprogrammed based on the changes in our application.
