2. Specific examples of applications
Tuning memory, mode setting, ID codes: Arbitrary data can easily be rewritten and data can be
retained during power-off.
Replacement of a DIP switch (from a mechanical to an electronic switch): User costs are
substantially reduced.
Adjustment data for IC elements and other electronics: The accuracy of final products is increased.
Adjustments, which had been performed manually, can be automated.
The applications of the EEPROM can be roughly divided into the following types:
Based on the above applications, general examples are shown below. Basically, the EEPROM (a
non-volatile memory) is useful for electronic applications.
