Abstract
A method of writing in a memory of the EEPROM type includes, in the presence of a string of new bytes to be written in the memory plane in at least one destination memory word already containing old bytes, a verification for each destination memory word whether or not the old bytes of this destination memory word must all be replaced with new bytes. The method also includes a reading of the old bytes of this destination memory word only if the old bytes must not all be replaced with new bytes.
