EEPROM

nonvolatile memory comprising arrays of floating-gate transistors used in computers, microcontrollers &c. to store relatively small amounts of data but allowing individual bytes to be erased/reprogrammed in-circuit through special programming signals

EEPROM (also E2PROM) stands for electrically erasable programmable read-only memory and is a type of non-volatile memory used in computers, integrated in smart cards and remote keyless systems. It is a Read Only Memory (ROM) whose data can be erased and reprogrammed by higher than normal currents of electricity.
