![]() Because it is planted into the hardware, firmware is also called “embedded software” or “embedded system.” It usually requires special equipment to embed firmware into a device, and you normally will not be able to alter or erase it without the manufacturer’s help. Unlike standard software, firmware is meant to control, operate, or maintain the hardware in the background, and not interact with human users. Without it, the electronic device will not work. Firmware refers to software that has been permanently installed in a machine, device, or microchip, usually by the manufacturer.
