MK8115 3D-NAND DRAM-Less SSD Controller Available From Maxiotek
New Taiwanese fabless company
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on August 9, 2016 at 6:19 pmMaxiotek Corporation, a new fabless SSD controller IC design house, announces the MK8115, at 3D-NAND-supported DRAM-less SSD controller solution for the SSD market that needs superior performance.
It enables customers to design their next generation SSDs to achieve higher capacity, more competitive performance, higher reliability, and more cost-effective than the current market solutions.
3D-NAND is a technology versus the 2D-planar NANDs. It allows for better endurance, reliability, and higher density which will continue to drive the NAND costs down even further.
MK8115’s DRAM-less design provides customers more freedom in their PCB designs to fit more NANDs than a typical DRAM SSD as well as enables more creative SFF (Small Form Factor) designs. It’s DRAM-less design reduces the total BOM count which translates to lower cost.
Maxiotek’s proprietary controller architecture paired with its firmware features such as AgileECC, Virtual Parity Recovery, Data Condenser Engine, etc., pushes DRAM-less SSD performance to a new peak that rivals DRAM-class of SSDs in typical workloads.
MK8115 is a choice to expand or tap into the consumer, industrial, and/or enterprise SSD market.
