Firmware feem ntau yog hais txog software rau qee yam khoom siv hluav taws xob. Cov thev naus laus zis niaj hnub tso cai rau koj tus kheej hloov kho lub firmware version ntawm ntau cov khoom siv tau siv hauv lub neej txhua hnub.
Lub sij hawm "Firmware" nws tus kheej tau tshwm sim ntev dhau los - hauv 60 ntawm lub xyoo pua xeem. Nws tau xub siv los tsim cov cim xeeb hlau nplaum. Lub sijhawm ntawd, microcircuits tau cia stitched nrog cov xaim tshwj xeeb hauv qhov chaw zoo. Tus txheej txheem no yog xub pib ua tiav manually. Ib lub kaum xyoo tom qab, cov tshuab tshwj xeeb tau tshwm sim los ua haujlwm ntawm cov txheej txheem no. Thaum lub sijhawm, firmware lossis firmware hloov tshiab tau nqa los ntawm ob txoj kev tseem ceeb: hloov microcircuit lossis hloov lub software. Nws yog qhov yooj yim heev los hloov software hauv cov xov tooj txawb. Raws li txoj cai, cov tuam txhab uas tsim cov khoom siv no tau koom nrog tsim software. Nws yog ib qho tseem ceeb kom nkag siab tias firmware muaj nyob hauv txhua cov khoom siv uas suav nrog microprocessors. Cov no tuaj yeem yog cov koob yees duab, TV, kev routers thiab ntau yam kev ntsuas. Yog tias koj txiav txim siab hloov kho cov software hloov ntawm cov twj tshwj xeeb rau koj tus kheej, nco ntsoov ua ntej kom paub tseeb tias lawv yuav tsum tau sib haum. Yog tias peb tab tom tham txog cov cuab yeej network, tom qab ntawd nws yog qhov zoo dua los rub software tsuas yog los ntawm cov vev xaib raug cai ntawm cov tuam ntxhab ntawm cov khoom siv. Cov ntawv cog lus tso cai feem ntau tsis tso cai rau koj los rho tawm cov firmware thiab hloov dab tsi rau nws. Qee cov tuam txhab cia lawv tus kheej muaj software uas siv tau nrog rau qee yam khoom siv. Qhov piv txwv zoo tshaj plaws ntawm xws li firmware yog BIOS menu, uas yog nyob rau hauv tag nrho IBM-tshaj cov khoos phis tawj ntawm peb lub sijhawm. Qhov BIOS version tuaj yeem hloov tau siv cov kev pabcuam muab los ntawm qee cov motherboard cov tuam ntxhab.
