Like all NAND Flashes, these in turn are based on memory cell technology, which has undergone a great evolution as an architecture since their first electronic circuits and although we will not explain in depth how they work. or what is their story, yes. will give a brief review to focus on the current events ...
Miniaturizing the components is essential in order to be able to increase the densities, because if you reduce the components, you can put more of them occupying the same space; However, manufacturers realized that they could no longer extend their chips horizontally, so they opted to do so vertically by adding more and more interconnected ...
The size of the wafers on which the chips are made has not always been the same. Overtime these increased in size in order to be able to manufacture more chips per wafer. The current shortage again raises the possibility of increasing platelet size. But, is this a viable solution that can be done in ...
The first 3D NAND chip was released in 2013, it was Samsung’s first V-NAND with a capacity of 16 GB and made up of 24 layers. Over time, the number of layers has evolved and today we can find 176-layer 3D NAND configurations. Is there a limit to the number of layers in 3D NAND? ...
The PCIe 4.0 interface enables data transfer speeds twice that of its predecessor, PCIe 3.0, and will now form the basis of the next generation of Micron SSDs for OEM systems and the consumer market. These new SSDs are based on the brand’s new generation of 3D NAND memory which combines the new controller architecture ...
The reason is that not all NAND Flash technologies are designed for the same type of customer, and solutions that may seem unsuitable for a specific use are not when we talk about other uses. This is why it is important to take this detail into account, because the use of one type of NAND ...
Oddly enough, Samsung and Micron currently have smartphones as their primary market, much more in the case of the former, as they also make their own high-performance SoCs. Getting the most DRAM with EUV is a huge blow to the loser, as there are a number of clear improvements that could tip the scales towards ...
The market could face madness shortly if the sources are correct. And that’s not an official statement as such, but from Digitimes they say Samsung is going to try to make a move that is as risky as it is potentially productive for its interests, but what exactly is it looking for? Samsung wants to ...
The main question would be: why does the industry need EUV technology? Everyone migrates there, but the ordinary user doesn’t really understand what the benefits are. In short: costs, speed and scalability. Of the three, scalability is perhaps the most important as the costs and speed are not proportional and one will decrease and the ...
PAM-8 is actively being talked about as a purported successor, but the reality is that the industry is ruling it out because it is not as complete as they would like for some buses. The trend seems to be to double the bandwidth with a 30 to 50% more powerDue to the use of more ...
