#140978 - Not a complete solution?
Responding to: ???'s previous message

why dont you use PROM, or you can use EPROM

That wouldn't totally protect the contents from change, though, would it?

The Erase state is all bits at '1', and programming consists in setting the required bits to '0'. Thus zeros couldn't be set back to ones, but there's be nothing to stop you altering the programming by setting more ones to zeros...

The same applies to OTPROM, http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=140977
