ATP To Present aMLC with PowerProtectorPlus Technology

ATP Electronics, Inc. announced its new aMLC (advancedMLC) technology for its NAND flash storage product families.

The product families will include 2.5″ SSD and slimSATA/mSATA embedded modules. aMLC with PowerProtectorPlus technology enhances reliability, endurance, performance, data retention, and data integrity capabilities onto their NAND flash storage to meet automotive, industrial automation, and other demanding industrial operation requirements.

ATP will showcase this technology and other related products at the upcoming ECS 2014 from November 4th to 5th, which takes place at the Kista Exhibition Center in Kistamassan, Sweden.
 
The modern automobile navigates direction, collects data, communicates with vehicles, and even links to other devices to enhance the efficiency of traffic management. Therefore, reliability and long-term data integrity are critical to automotive applications. ATP offers the firmware technology, aMLC, to transfer NAND flash from four states of MLC to two states. Due to its greater cell disturbance margin and subsequently larger program/erase cycles, overall performance and data retention has been improved.

For the automotive and other industrial applications, ATP provides the Wide Temperature (WT) DRAM solution, which utilizes the IC Level tests and the system level burning in-tests to ensure that the products meet and exceed extreme WT (-40°C to 85°C) operating conditions with industrial grade quality and reliability.
 
The company will also reveal its new Power Cycling Test Demonstration Kit at the booth, which validates the industrially ATP PowerProtector under sudden power-down situations, where most products without ATP PowerProtector usually fail.

ATP will deliver a presentation session on Challenges in Embedded SSD Validation, on Tuesday, November 4th on ECS2014.
