New IEEE Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn.

Firmware is the read-only-memory (ROM)-based software that controls a computer between the time it is turned on and the time the primary operating system takes control of the machine.

Firmware's responsibilities include:

  • testing and initializing the hardware,
  • determining the hardware configuration,
  • loading (or booting) the operating system, and
  • providing interactive debugging facilities in case of faulty hardware or software.

The core requirements and practices specified by IEEE Std 1275-1994 must be supplemented by system-specific requirements to form a complete specification for the firmware for a particular system.

This standard establishes such additional requirements pertaining to the bus architecture defined by IEEE Std 1496-1993, IEEE Standard for a Chip and Module Interconnect Bus: SBus.
