NOR FLASH

NOR flash is a type of non-volatile memory that is commonly used in electronic devices to store data that needs to be retained even when the device is powered off. NOR flash is distinguished from other types of flash memory by its ability to allow random access to any memory location, which makes it suitable for storing code and data that needs to be executed or accessed quickly. NOR flash is often used in applications that require fast read performance, such as booting an operating system or executing code from a microcontroller. It is also commonly used in consumer electronics, such as smartphones and digital cameras, to store firmware and other data. NOR flash is typically slower than other types of flash memory, such as NAND flash, but it offers higher endurance and lower power consumption.
