flash

Ferroelectric memory may be able to stage a comeback thanks to materials innovations as work presented at VLSI Symposium have shown, though there is still plenty to do.

Western Digital's head of technology set out at the recent VLSI Symposium the ways in which flash makers can scale without costs accelerating.

Samsung described at VLSI Symposia how it has used two further forms of stacking to increase flash capacity.

At IEDM this year, Macronix showed how a 3D architecture may bring back NOR flash, which stopped scaling a decade ago.

Waferscale SSDs are among the future drive architectures being explored by Kioxia, according to a keynote delivered at VLSI Symposia.

IEDM late last year showed how MRAM is being prepared for both FD-SOI and advanced finFET nodes.

Concerns that the diplomatic stand-off between Seoul and Tokyo could hit the supply chain rose again this weekend as South Korean politicians made a surprise visit to disputed islands.

The Chinese memory module specialist will preview the 2020 launch of its new solution based on the ultra low latency XL-Flash technology from Toshiba.

Despite the intense R&D going into storage-class and other novel forms of non-volatile memories, flash is set to continue as the bulk memory of choice, Micron executive claims in VLSI Symposia keynote.

Microsemi has launched a family of non-volatile FPGAs that use a 28nm process to increase density over the previous SmartFusion devices.
