ABSTRACT:
The use of electromechanical devices for the configuration of the address for access to a peripheral unit in a data-processing system is avoided by replacing them with a non-volatile EEPROM-type memory. The data in non-volatile memory is read as soon as the peripheral unit is put into operation, and the information that it delivers is stored in volatile memory and used as a comparison address to validate the operation of the peripheral unit.
