  2. Read-only memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read-only_memory

    For example, Atmel microcontrollers come in both EEPROM and mask ROM formats. The main advantage of mask ROM is its cost. Per bit, mask ROM was more compact than any other kind of semiconductor memory. Since the cost of an integrated circuit strongly depends on its size, mask ROM is significantly cheaper than any other kind of semiconductor memory.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROM_image

    Intelligent Systems ROM burner for the Nintendo DS. A ROM image, or ROM file, is a computer file which contains a copy of the data from a read-only memory chip, often from a video game cartridge, or used to contain a computer's firmware, or from an arcade game's main board.

  4. Programmable ROM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmable_ROM

    It is one type of read-only memory (ROM). PROMs are used in digital electronic devices to store permanent data, usually low level programs such as firmware or microcode. The key difference from a standard ROM is that the data is written into a ROM during manufacture, while with a PROM the data is programmed into them after manufacture. Thus ...

    In computer graphics, the centripetal Catmull–Rom spline is a variant form of the Catmull–Rom spline, originally formulated by Edwin Catmull and Raphael Rom, [1] which can be evaluated using a recursive algorithm proposed by Barry and Goldman. [2]

  7. Texas Instruments TMS1000 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments_TMS1000

    The original TMS1000 had 1024 x 8 bits of ROM, 64 x 4 bits of RAM, and 23 input/output lines. The TMS1000 family used mask-programmed ROM. Once the user had a debugged program ready to be committed to production, it would send the program to Texas Instruments who would then make a special mask to program the on-chip ROM.

    This chip was marketed as the world’s first “GPU” (graphics processing unit), a term Nvidia coined. It was seen as a major innovation in 3D graphics in PC gaming – and set the company on ...

  9. Bank switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bank_switching

    Bank switching is a technique used in computer design to increase the amount of usable memory beyond the amount directly addressable by the processor [1] instructions. It can be used to configure a system differently at different times; for example, a ROM required to start a system from diskette could be switched out when no longer needed. In ...
