| EBE
(Electron Beam Epitaxy) |
A technique for creating
thin films on substrates in precise patterns, in which the substrate is
first coated with a layer of dopant material before being placed in a
high vacuum. A guided beam of electrons is fired at the substrate
causing the dopant to be driven into it, effectively allowing
molecular-thin layers to be "painted" onto the substrate where
required. |

| ECL
(Emitter-Coupled Logic) |
Logic gates implemented
using particular configurations of bipolar junction
transistors. |
| a |
| Edge-Sensitive |
An input that only affects a
function when it transitions from one logic value to another.

| a |
| E2PROM
(Electrically-Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) |
A memory device whose
contents can be electrically programmed by the designer. Additionally,
the contents can be electrically erased allowing the device to be
reprogrammed. Also known as E2PROM. |
| a |
| EEPROM
(Electrically-Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) |
A memory device whose
contents can be electrically programmed by the designer. Additionally,
the contents can be electrically erased allowing the device to be
reprogrammed. Also known as EEPROM. |
| a |
| Electrically-Erasable
Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM or E2PROM) |
A memory device whose contents
can be electrically programmed by the designer. Additionally, the
contents can be electrically erased allowing the device to be
reprogrammed. |
| a |
| Electromigration |
(1)A process in which
structures on an integrated circuit's substrate are eroded by the flow
of electrons in much the same way as land is eroded by a river (also
known as subatomic erosion). (2)The process of forming
transistor-like regions in a semiconductor using an intense magnetic
field. |
