NOR Flash

NOR Flash is a non-volatile memory IC category that stores data without requiring continuous power. It is a type of flash memory built on a NOR logic structure, enabling direct access to stored information through random addressing.

Compared with other flash memory architectures, NOR Flash is commonly recognized for its straightforward read behavior and stable data retention characteristics. It is typically used to hold persistent code and fixed data that must remain available after power cycling.

• Non-volatile storage: retains information when power is removed.
• Random access architecture: supports direct addressing of memory locations.
• Flash-based technology: allows data to be electrically programmed and erased.
