CES: Maxiotek DRAM-Less SSD Controller in Mass Production

For 2D and 3D NAND, sequential RW up to 560MB/s and 540MB/s

Maxiotek Corporation, a fabless SSD controller design house, participated in the 2018 CES to demonstrated the MAS0901, MAS0902 and all series of products, and announced the company begins mass-production of the MAS0902, a DRAM-less 6Gb SATA SSD controller, had bee, adopted by several major SSD brands.

The SSD products using the MAS0902 will soon be available in the market,” Henry Chao, CEO of Maxiotek said.

The MAS0902 is a 2D/3D NAND supported DRAM-less SSD controller, designed for the growing SSD market segment that values performance as the major metrics.

The proprietary controller architecture paired with its intelligent firmware features such as AgileECC 2, WriteBooster 2, Virtual Parity Recovery, etc., pushes the performance of the MAS0902 to levels that compete DRAM-class SSDs in typical workloads.

The R/W processing speeds of MAS0902 has almost reach the 6Gb SATA theoretical limit values.

The controller provides customers cost-effective solutions for their next generation SSDs by expanding the capacity up to 2TB, accelerating access performance, as well as improving reliability,” the company explained.

3D-NAND, a technology versus the 2D-Planar NAND, allows better endurance, reliability, and higher density while it will drive NAND costs further down.

The 2D/3D NAND supported MAS0902 is your ideal SSD controller option to the SSD market,” the company added.

Comprehensive Support for 2D and 3D NAND with Performance
The MAS0902 builds in dual processors to yield a satisfactory data transmission performance with the latest NAND flash memory, including 3D-MLC, 3D-TLC and 3D-QLC. Moreover, it supports 2D NAND flash memory.

MAS0902 is a choice to tap into or expand the consumer and industrial SSD markets.

Performance of the MAS0902 with 3D-MLC/3D-TLC
• Sequential read up to 560MB/s
• Sequential write up to 540MB/s
• Random read up to 100,000 IO/s
• Random write up to 80,000 IO/s

AgileECC 2
• Support LDPC ECC technology
• Supportsflexible flash protection provides well-balanced reliability and throughput to NAND flashes
• Supports Maxiotek’s hardware-based RAID engine VPR (Virtual Parity Recovery)

WriteBooster 2
The feature enhances the transmission speed and sustained performance with 3D NAND. Comprehensive 2D and 3D NAND flash support

Strengthen Security
• Supports hardware-based AES-256 encryption
• Supports TCG-OPAL 2.0 compliant and SED (Self-Encrypted Drive) models which provide the ability to comply with various standards the end-users might need

Supports commercial (0°C~70°C) and industrial (-40°C~85°C) grades
