Hi all,



Does anyoneknow if its possible to use a flash rom as a big eprom ? PC's detect um as small drives though I want to use them with rare binary data like eproms, anyone got any ideas ?



thanks chris


Flash ROMs come in two types: serial and parallel. Serial Flash ROMs are used in Compact Flash (CF) cards, SD cards and other consumer devices.

Parallel Flash ROMs are an older technology, and have often been used in the application you describe. That is why the phrase "flashing the BIOS" is used, because parallel Flash ROMs have been used in PCs for many years. There are many manufacturers; check with
