The EDO RAM chips are also faster than fast-page mode RAM chips. Acronym for electrically erasable programmable read-only memory. Abbreviation for electrostatic discharge. Refer to "Safety Instructions" at the front of your User's Guide for a complete discussion of ESD. Abbreviation for enhanced graphics adapter. Acronym for enhanced small-device interface. 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. Abbreviation for Electromagnetic Compatibility. Abbreviation for electromagnetic interference. Abbreviation for expanded memory manager. A software utility that uses extended memory to emulate expanded memory on computers with an Intel386™ or higher microprocessor. See also conventional memory, expanded memory, extended memory, memory manager, and XMM. Abbreviation for Expanded Memory Specification. See also expanded memory, memory manager, and XMS. Acronym for erasable programmable read-only memory. A technique for accessing RAM above 1 MB. To enable expanded memory on your computer, you must use an EMM. You should configure your system to support expanded memory only if you run application programs that can use (or require) expanded memory. See also conventional memory, EMM, extended memory, and memory manager. Your computer contains an expansion bus that allows the microprocessor to communicate with controllers for peripheral devices, such as a network card or an internal modem. A connector on the computer's system board for plugging in an expansion card. RAM above 1 MB. Most software that can use it, such as Windows, requires that extended memory be under the control of an XMM. See also conventional memory, expanded memory, memory manager, and XMM. A RAM cache using SRAM chips. Because SRAM chips operate at several times the speed of DRAM chips, the microprocessor can retrieve data and instructions faster from external cache memory than from RAM.
