Examples of firmware include:

• the BIOS found in personal computers,
• Open Firmware, used in Apple Macintosh computers,
• the computer program in a read-only memory (ROM) integrated circuit chip (A hardware configuration is usually used to represent the software.),
• the erasable programmable read-only memoryAn Erasable programmable read-only memory EPROM is a computer memory chip which is normally read only, but can be erased and then re-programmed. There are two main types: #UV erasable, these have a window in the middle of the package.
