Flash EPROM ==>
Flash Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory
<storage> (FEPROM, "flash memory") A kind of non-volatile storage device
similar to EEPROM, but where erasing can only be done in blocks or the entire
chip.
In 1995 this relatively new technology started to replace EPROMs because
reprogramming could be done with the chip installed. At that time FEPROMs could
be rewritten about 1000 times.
Like EAPROM and ferro-magnetic material, FEPROMs rely on FN tunnelling. Some
flash memory supports block erase.
