Macronix With SLC NAND Flash Product Family for Embedded Applications
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on Fri, February 10th, 2012
In 512Mb and 1Gb density
Macronix International Co., Ltd., supplier in NOR Flash memory, launches the first generation SLC NAND Flash family, the MX30LF family.
An extension of Macronix's existing Serial and Parallel NOR Flash product portfolio, the new MX30LF SLC NAND family will facilitate Macronix serving embedded code and data storage markets as a total Flash memory provider.
In embedded non-volatile memories, Macronix fulfills the memory requirements of these applications ranging from consumer electronic applications like set-top box (STB), TV, digital cameras, Customer-premises equipment (CPE) and high end networking, through to industrial PC and automotive applications. Macronix has begun sampling SLC NAND products and will start trial production in 2012 Q1.
"Broadcom is committed to high performance and highly integrated broadband CPE solutions. We are pleased to see Macronix launch its latest NAND Flash product family, offering the NAND Flash densities required by system vendors and service providers," said Dr. John Liberati, Senior Principal Scientist, Broadcom Corporation.
"Along with process technology advancements to 1xnm, NAND suppliers today focus their attention on MLC/TLC NAND developments. In comparison, Macronix chooses the SLC NAND to facilitate the niche market supply needs and stability," commented Michael Yang, Principle Analyst at IHS iSuppli Corporation, "a strategy that enhances the company's current position in the embedded applications."
Manufactured and developed by Macronix in-house technology, the new MX30LF family consists of two products, MX30LF1208AA and MX30LF1G08AA, of 512Mb and 1Gb density respectively. Both products utilize a reliable 75nm floating gate technology which makes them devices for embedded applications demanding quality and reliability. The company is committed to providing longevity for product support with the advantage of its own fabs.
