A type of flash memory chip that replaces the floating gate with thin layers of material that "trap the charge." The charge trap is a sandwich of materials such as silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon ...

Editor’s Note: NAND and NOR Flash memory play an integral role in embedded systems of all sorts but successful implementation requires careful attention to key ...

The advantages of NOR flash for embedded applications are well known. It is fast, and it allows software to run and modify its contents highly reliably because it functions in a random access mode, in ...

There is a growing demand for higher-density NAND flash across the global storage market. For the time being, this demand has been satisfied through many developments, not only in the capabilities of ...

Taipei, Taiwan — Looking to snatch back its mantle as NAND flash leader, Samsung Semiconductor trotted out a 32-Gbit chip made on 40-nanometer process technology last week that eliminates the ...

Samsung has announced production of the first solid state drives (SSD) based on its new 3D V-NAND flash memory. V-NAND flash memories read and write twice as fast as conventional NAND memories, and ...
