 		 #159167 - Not that generic!
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Richard Erlacher said:
If EPROM is now a generic term, how's one to interpret whether it's an EPROM, EEPROM, FLASH, SEEPROM, NVRAM, FRAM, MRAM, or whatever?

What do you mean by SEEPROM?

But NVRAM, FRAM, and MRAM are not ROM at all - so the problem doesn't arise!

But it does raise another issue:

"RAM" simply stands for Random Access Memory (as distinct from sequential access memory); it doesn't actually say anything about whether it is read-only, or read-write - and neither doesn it actually say anything about whether the storage is volatile or not...

MOVX doesn't work for writing.            01/01/70 00:00      
   It's a read-only memory            01/01/70 00:00      
      EEPROM            01/01/70 00:00      
         RAM-EPROM            01/01/70 00:00      
            That wouldn't be an EEPROM.            01/01/70 00:00      
            Look at Ferro-electric memory            01/01/70 00:00      
         Not wrong.            01/01/70 00:00      
            An EEPROM is an EPROM            01/01/70 00:00      
               Technically, but not in common usage of the term.            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Common use != Definition            01/01/70 00:00      
               Not quite ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                  No, it's not            01/01/70 00:00      
                  A datasheet that actually calls it a "UVEPROM"            01/01/70 00:00      
                     OK ... I stand corrected ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                        A link with EPROM <= EEPROM            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Not that generic!            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Magnetic core memory            01/01/70 00:00      
                           it is SERIAL EEPROM            01/01/70 00:00      
                              UVEPROM?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 I think a part number would be the solution            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    Symmetric speed too.            01/01/70 00:00      
                           ta paidia paizei !!!            01/01/70 00:00      
            EEPROM implies EPROM            01/01/70 00:00      
               Today, it's the other way round.            01/01/70 00:00      
                  assumption < implication            01/01/70 00:00      
                  You missed the point!            01/01/70 00:00      
                     As one of my old tutors used to say...            01/01/70 00:00      
         Let's not confuse things further            01/01/70 00:00      
            You have also missed the point            01/01/70 00:00      
      Or...            01/01/70 00:00      
   Some Kind Like....            01/01/70 00:00      
      Non-Volatile Memory            01/01/70 00:00      
         or maybe the AT28C64B will work            01/01/70 00:00      
      You mean you want an NVRAM?            01/01/70 00:00      
   write eeprom            01/01/70 00:00      
      that may not be the problem            01/01/70 00:00      
         EPROM has special write-procedures            01/01/70 00:00      
   Check the write waveform timings!!!!!            01/01/70 00:00      
      How?            01/01/70 00:00      
         Source code to simulate MOVX...            01/01/70 00:00      
         Start with the datasheet ...            01/01/70 00:00
