We have been hearing the terms volatile memory and non-volatile memory from our 1st year of college. Here is a brush up of what we have heard so far.
The OTP (one time programmable) are used for firmware applications.
The ROM is also known as the program memory or code memory and RAM is also known as the data memory.
The EEPROM are electrically erasable PROM and needs electrical supply to clear the data.
The UVPROM requires UV light to pass through the window to clear the data.
The FLASH ROM are the advanced ones where data is loaded and retrieved in blocks, where each block is greater than 2 bytes, so the operation is faster in the case of FLASH ROM, whereas in the case of EEPROM data is loaded and retrieved byte by byte so it would take much time to access data when compared to FLASH ROM.
