Memory types Refimprove date April 2008 Mask ROM MROM is a type of read only memory ROM whose contents are programmed by the integrated circuit manufacturer rather than by the user . The terminology mask comes from Semiconductor device fabrication integrated circuit fabrication , where regions of the chip are Photomask masked off during the process of photolithography . It is common practice to use rewritable non volatile memory such as UV EPROM or EEPROM for the development phase of a project, and to switch to mask ROM when the code has been finalized. For example, Atmel microcontrollers come in both EEPROM and mask ROM formats. The main advantage of mask ROM is its cost. Per bit, mask ROM is more compact than any other kind of semiconductor memory . Since the cost of an integrated circuit strongly depends on its size, mask ROM is significantly cheaper than any other kind of semiconductor memory. However, the one time masking cost is high and there is a long turn around time from design to product phase. Design errors are costly if an error in the data or code is found, the mask ROM is useless and must be replaced in order to change the code or data. Some integrated circuits contain only mask ROM. As of 2003, four companies produce most such mask ROM chips Samsung Electronics , NEC Corporation , Oki Electric Industry , and Macronix. ref http techon.nikkeibp.co.jp NEA archive 200307 254214 Technology Analysis Oki P2ROM to Replace Mask ROM, Flash EEPROM by Motoyuki Oishi 2003 ref Other integrated circuits contain mask ROM as well as a variety of other devices.

Unreferenced date May 2008 Confusing date May 2008 A wildcard mask is a Mask computing mask of bit s that indicates which parts of an IP address can assume any value. In the Cisco IOS , they are used in several places, for example To indicate the size of a network or subnet for some routing protocols, such as OSPF . To indicate what IP addresses should be permitted or denied in access control list s ACLs . A wildcard mask can be thought of as a subnet mask , with ones and zeros inverted for example, a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.255 corresponds to a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. A wildcard mask is usually used in combination with an IP address. For example, in a standard ACL, a statement like the following access list 10 permit 10.0.3.0 0.0.0.255 allows data from subnet 10.0.3.0 24 to pass, that is, the first three octets must match exactly, whereas all the bits in the fourth octet can take on any value. However, any bits can be marked as don t care . For example, a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.254 binary equivalent 00000000.00000000.00000000.11111110 in an ACL might accept or deny all even numbered IP addresses in a specific network. Wildcard masks are used in situations where the subnet mask may not apply. For example, in an ACL, two affected hosts may fall in different subnets, but the use of a wildcard mask can group the two together.

Usage While a pocket mask is not as efficient as a bag valve mask , it does have its advantages when only one rescuer is available. As suggested by its name, the pocket mask benefits from a somewhat easier portability when compared to the bag valve mask. Also, in contrast to the bag valve mask, which requires two hands to operate one to form a seal and the other to squeeze the bag , the pocket mask allows for both of the rescuer s hands to be on the patients head.
