DTE Abbreviation for data terminal equipment. Any device, such as a computer system, that can send data in digital form by means of a cable or communications line. The DTE is connected to the cable or communications line through a data communications equipment (DCE) device, such as a modem. ECC Abbreviation for error checking and correction. ECP Abbreviation for Extended Capabilities Port. EDO Acronym for extended data output dynamic random access memory which is a type of DRAM that is faster than conventional DRAM. EDO RAM can start fetching the next block of memory at the same time that it sends the previous block to the CPU. EEPROM Acronym for electrically erasable programmable read-only memory. EIDE Abbreviation for enhanced integrated drive electronics. EIDE devices add one or more of the following enhancements to the traditional IDE standard: • Data transfer rates of up to 16 MB/sec • Support for drives other than just hard drives, such as CD drives • Support for hard drives with capacities greater than 528 MB • Support for up to two controllers, each with up to two devices attached EISA Acronym for Extended Industry-Standard Architecture, a 32-bit expansion-bus design. The expansion-card connectors in an EISA computer are also compatible with 8- or 16-bit ISA expansion cards. To avoid a configuration conflict when installing an EISA expansion card, you must use the EISA Configuration Utility. This utility allows you to specify which expansion slot contains the card and obtains information about the card's required system resources from a corresponding EISA configuration file. EMC Abbreviation for Electromagnetic Compatibility. EMI Abbreviation for electromagnetic interference. EMM Abbreviation for expanded memory manager. A utility that uses extended memory to emulate expanded memory on computers with an Intel386™ or higher microprocessor. EMS Abbreviation for Expanded Memory Specification. EPP Abbreviation for Enhanced Parallel Port which provides improved bidirectional data transmission. Many devices are designed to take advantage of the EPP standard, especially devices, such as network or SCSI adapters that connect to the parallel port of a portable computer. EPROM Acronym for erasable programmable read-only memory. ERA Acronym for embedded remote access. ERA/O Acronym for embedded remote access option. ESD Abbreviation for electrostatic discharge. ESM Acronym for embedded server management. 198 Glossary
