What is ROM Read Only Memory Its Type and Uses



ROM ( Read Only Memory )
ROM works as a primary memory in computer system, which connects to mother board and looks like a chip. As the names shows that it is only to read the computer data, means you can’t write or change in ROM data. ROM helps in “ Boot Up ” computer and gives a new life to computer system while starting up means you can’t start computer without ROM.

Features of ROM :
-          The main difference between RAM and ROM is that RAM loses his data during shut down of computer while ROM saves its data during shut down.

-          With that ROM don’t need power to work; it can store his data in closed computer as well.

-          It is most important part for starting of computer.

-          But is works slowly.

-          You can just store some megabyte in ROM.

-          There are lots of Gaming System Cartridges in which ROM is used.

Types of ROM :
There are types of ROM available in market - 

·         PROM : Programmable Read Only Memory

·         EPROM : Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory

·         EEROM : Electric Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory

·         EAROM : Electric Alterable Read Only Memory

With all of these ROM, BIOS ( Basic Input Output System ) processor also helps in working of ROM. CLICK HERE TO KNOW What is Central Processing Unit CPU Explain Its All Parts ... 
Types of Read Only Memory
Types of Read Only Memory
Programmable Read Only Memory :
 PROM is mostly used in CRT monitors and it is like an IC digital memory. PROM is permanent time program means the data stored in this ROM is permanent and you can’t change it.

Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory :
EPROM is that ROM who can save data even after the shutting down or computer. Mostly it is used in PCO Computers and TV Tuners. In this type of ROM you can write or erase data via laser, but you will need strong ultraviolet rays to erase data.

Electric Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory :
This can store some data after shutting down of computer, it connects to computer motherboard and its main work is opening computer system. This works as tube light starter and you can read, write and change any data in it, for this you just need give signals through byte. EEPROM is used to store some large data but it keeps data for a limited time.

Electric Alterable Read Only Memory :
It appears like a semi conductor or IC and you can change in it via electric signals. It works with RAM to on computer and helps in display the screen.

Basic Input Output System :
BIOS look like a microprocessor which works with ROM and starts computer. Not just this it manages the flow of data between computer operator to mouse, keyboard, hard disk and video adaptor.
