Abstract
An Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM) provides backup and initialization data for random access memory (RAM) in a control unit. In order to update the EEPROM with new releases of a program and data, the EEPROM is divided into two segments, each with a separately controllable write enable voltage. Advantageously, this allows a new release to be written into one segment of a single EEPROM without erasing the other segment until the newly written segment has been verified.
