Kioxia has begun sampling 64 and 128GB eMMC NAND for consumer applications which integrate the memory and a controller in one package. General availability is planned for October. Demand for mid-range capacities in consumer products continues to grow, and though the market continues to shift to UFS, there are cases where eMMC may still be used. The new eMMC devices ...

space grade 4Gbyte DDR4
Teledyne e2v is shipping 4byte radiation-tolerant space-grade DDR4 memory. The device, called DDR4T04G72, is a 15 x 20 x 1.92mm multi-chip module that can operate at 2.4Gtransfer/s. Its bus assigns 64bits to data and an additional 8bits to error correction. The company sees it being used with its own Qormino processors, and the memories are compatible with “the vast majority of processors, ...
Hyperstone sampling SD and microSD card controllers
Hyperstone is sampling the S9 family of Secure Digital (SD) and microSD memory card controllers. The controller’s FlashXE ECC and hyReliability feature set guarantee extended endurance, data integrity and power fail safety coping with demanding applications in markets such as industrial automation, telecom, networking, and medical equipment. With the hyMap flash translation layer, the S9 achieves minimal write amplification and ...
Kioxia sampling 256GB UFS NAND supporting MIPI M-PHY v5.0
Kioxia is sampling a 256GB NAND flash UFS memory supporting MIPI M-PHY v5.0. The eventual line-up will include 128GB, 256GB and 512GB devices. UFS (MIPI M-PHY 5.0 has a theoretical interface speed of up to 23.2Gbps per lane (x2 lanes = 46.4Gpbs) in HS-Gear5 mode. Sequential read and write performance of the 256GB device is improved by approximately 90% and ...
Intrinsic scales RRAM to 50nm
Intrinsic Semiconductor and its partner imec have scaled Intrinsic’s RRAM technology to 50nm. Intrinsic claims that, at 50nm, the technology demonstrates ‘excellent switching behaviour’. “We are delighted to have hit this critical milestone, confirming our theoretical analysis that the devices can be made with nanoscale dimensions,” says CEO Mark Dickinson, “ this means, at last, there will be a simple ...
Weebit Nano demo-es operational crossbar array
Weebit Nano has demo-ed its first operational crossbar arrays, a key milestone on the Company’s path to creating discrete (stand-alone) non-volatile memory (NVM) chips. The 1T1R (one transistor one resistor) architecture used in embedded ReRAM arrays is not sufficient to support the large arrays of memory cells needed in discrete memory chips. For this reason, Weebit’s crossbar arrays were developed using ...
Samsung develops 14nm 16Gb LPDDR5X DRAM
Samsung says it has developed the industry’s first 14nm based 16Gb Low Power Double Data Rate 5X (LPDDR5X) DRAM. The LPDDR5X DRAM will offer data processing speeds of up to 8.5Gbps, which are over 1.3 times faster than LPDDR5’s 6.4Gbps. It will use around 20% less power than LPDDR5 memory and will enable up to 64GB per memory package.
