EEPROM

Short for Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory, EEPROM is a type of PROM that can be erased and reprogrammed using an electrical charge.

Unlike most memory inside a computer, this type of memory remembers data when the power is turned off. EEPROM is often used to store information for the computer's BIOS.
