What is a nonvolatile removable medium that uses integrated circuits?

Solid-state storage, known as ROMs. Read Only Memory.
Some are programmed once only and retain their program material with no power at all.
Others may be EAROMs (Electrically Alterable Read Only Memory), where the data is stored in long term capacitors and can be altered by programming with the correct voltages applied.
Others are erased by ultra violet light and can be re-written, but hold the data with the power off.
Removable types, would fit into the category of flash memory cards, or USB sticks.
These contain IC's which hold the data stored on them, allowing for easy transfer of information from one device to another.

Is medium a means of conveying information?
If you mean a medium, as in the supernatural, then no. Though a medium is a good medium for relieving the gullible of their money.
What is the difference between Integrated Circuits and Printed Circuit Boards?
to the man in the street: An integrated circuit is something like an eprom ( a small unit like a chunk of chocolate) that is usually soldered onto a circuit board. A printed circuit board is a slab of board with holes in it. (like a smaller version of a pegboard) that has lines of copper or similar printed on it for the purpose of connecting all the integrated circuits and resisters together. short answer = Size breadboard = insulation with holes where you mount components and run wires to interconnect them printed circuit board= insulator with copper laminated. copper is etched away to leave wires .. sometimes in several lamentations components are soldered into holes drilled in the wires Hybrid module= usually a ceramic insulator with copper laminated wires components in beam lead packages electron beam welded to the copper integrated circuit = the insulator is the substrate usually a diode done over most of the Si wafer in the first diffusion components are built by diffusing different materials in more and more layers packages or carriers 7400 ic dip 1" x 1/2" surface mount 1/4" x 1/8" beam lead .050" x .025" SSI MSI LSI small scale, medium scale, large scale... integration has to do with the color of the light red light 760nm won let you work much smaller than 1 micron... blue light 350Nm maybe 0.5 micron uv perhaps .2micron xrays gamma rays are a bit more difficult to mask and control so electron beams are used for smaller stuff perhaps tunneling electrons can bring it down some. perhaps an order of magnitude breakthrough will give us nanotek
The material through which a wave travels is?
The material through which a wave travels is called the medium.
What are the Conclusion of five generations of computers?
First Generation (1940-1956) Everything started with vacuum tubes. These were widely used in the first computer systems for circuitry, while magnetic drums were used for memory. Second Generation (1956-1963) Next, there was the introduction of transistors, which came in to replace vacuum tubes. ... Third Generation (1964-1971) Third-generation computers were where we saw the introduction of integrated circuits (IC), which are still in use today. Fourth Generation (1971-2010) In the fourth generation of computers, the invention of the microprocessor (commonly known as CPU) helped to get computers to the desk and, later, lap-size that we ... Fifth Generation (Present Day) Although we are still using technology from the fourth generation of information technology, we are now going into a new age: the fifth generation.
Definition of medium size computer?
its not small its not big.....

What is the effect of surge arrester on increase the voltage in medium voltage circuits?
What is the effect of surge arrested on increase the voltage in medium voltage circuits?
Is diskette a part of a computer?
No, it is a removable storage medium that may be used by a computer.
What kind of storage medium is cassette tape considered?
It is re-writeable removable storage.
What are some circuits within an automobile?
Electrical circuits. Cooling Lubrication Hydraulic These are all circuits. The medium starts at one point, goes around a circuit and returns to the beginning, to start over.
Transfer supports migration using any removable storage medium common to the two computers except what?
Floppy disks do not support migration, due to lack of sufficient memory capacity
Which length is usually measured by micrometers?
Some objects with a dimension of the order of micrometer (um) Red blood cells : 6-8 um Minimum human hair radius: 8 um Single Mode Fiber optic core radius: 5 um (fiber for long distance transmission) Escherichia coli bacterium 10 um length, 0.5 um diameter Internal channel of a medium performance transistor of modern integrated circuit: 0.1 um Internal channel of the most advanced transistor for integrated circuits 0.032 um
What is the difference between backing up and archiving data?
You save data by copying it from memory to your hard drive. You back it up by copying it from your hard drive to a CD (or other removable medium).
What are the main stages of computer production?
There are four main stages: Stage 1: Tube Computer Stage 2: Transistor computer Stage 3: Small and Medium Scale Integrated Circuit Computer Stage 4: Large-scale and very large-scale integrated circuit computers

What is the unit of random access memory?
Random access memory (usually known by its acronym, RAM) is a type of computer data storage. It takes the form of integrated circuits that allow the stored data to be accessed in any order - that is, at random and without the physical movement of the storage medium or a physical reading head. RAM is a volatile memory as the information or instructions stored in it will be lost if the power is switched off.source: Wikipedia
