EPROM
Erasable programmable read only memory.
EQC Equipment check.
equipment check
An asynchronous indication of a malfunction.
Error log
A data set or file in a product or system where error information is stored
for later access.
ESD Electrostatic discharge.
ESP Encapsulating Security Payload. An Internet Protocol that provides origin
authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality protection of a packet. ESP also
supports encryption-only and authentication-only configurations, but
encryption without authentication is discouraged because it is insecure.
F
fault symptom code (FSC)

medium and more adaptable to change than pure hardware circuitry. An
example of firmware is the Basic input/output system (BIOS) in read-only
memory (ROM) on a PC system board.
FLASH EEPROM
An electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) that
can be updated.
FMR Field microcode replacement.
format
The arrangement or layout of data on a data medium.
