Questions and Answers

What is the role of EEPROM in a PLC memory unit?

  • Stores the program information or control logic
  • Stores input and output signals
  • Allows initial and/or additional information to be written into the chip (correct)
  • Carries out processing related to input signals

How does the CPU of a PLC interact with the EEPROM in the memory unit?

  • Fetches program instructions from EEPROM (correct)
  • Stores control logic in EEPROM
  • Carries out processing related to microcontroller signals
  • Fetches program instructions from data memory

What distinguishes EEPROM from PROM in a PLC memory unit?

  • EEPROM does not require erasing before reprogramming, unlike PROM (correct)
  • EEPROM is volatile, while PROM is non-volatile
  • EEPROM stands for Programmable Read Only Memory, while PROM doesn't have programmability
  • PROM allows information to be written into the chip, unlike EEPROM
