What Does PROM Stand For?
PROM stands for Progammable Read Only Memory
PROM, or Programmable Read-Only Memory, is a type of non-volatile memory that can be programmed once after manufacturing. It retains its data when power is turned off, making it suitable for storing firmware and applications that do not require frequent updates. PROM allows users to customize the data it contains by using a specialized programming device, enabling specific applications or functions to be embedded into electronic systems.
