Firmware is a specialized type of software that is embedded directly into hardware devices to control their functionality. It provides low-level control for the device's specific hardware and is essential for its operation, often residing in non-volatile memory like ROM or flash memory. Unlike regular software, firmware is closely tied to the hardware it runs on and may require specific updates to improve performance or fix bugs. Examples include the software in routers, printers, and embedded systems in appliances.
