Statement of Volatility – Dell UltraSharp U3417W Monitor
CAUTION: A CAUTION indicates either potential damage to hardwar e or loss of data and tells you how to avoid the
problem.
The purpose of this document is to certify that the Dell UltraSharp U3417W monitor will not save,
retain, or reproduce a signal to any internal or external component after power has been removed and
reapplied to the unit.
The Dell UltraSharp U3417W monitor contains both volatile and non-volatile (NV) memory ICs. Volatile
memory(s) lose their data immediately upon removal of power. Non-volatile memory ICs continue to
retain their data even after the power has been removed. However, no input video data is written into
these memory ICs during operation.
List below contains volatile and non volatile memory ICs used in the Dell UltraSharp U3417W monitor.
System EEPROM ST M24C16
Size 16Kbit
Volatility Non-volatile
Can user programs or operating
system write data to it during
normal operation?
Purpose Storage of system setting (OSD)
How is data input to this
memory?
How is this memory write
protected?
OSD setting: Yes
Control the OSD menu and change OSD setting(ex.
Brightness, contrast, color setting) and the setting will be
stored into system EEPROM.
Software write protected
