FMS: ATP Electronics Launched Industrial e.MMC Product Family

With 3D NAND flash and densities up to 128GB

ATP Electronics, Inc.tackles tough storage demands with its industrial e.MMC product family.

ATP eMMC 128GB 1808SN

The company’s industrial e.MMC, which adheres to JEDEC e.MMC v5.1 Standard (JESD84-B51), is poised to make its mark at the Flash Memory Summit 2018 in Santa Clara, CA, USA.

Big features in tiny package
Constructed with 3D NAND flash and with densities of up to 128GB, the firm’s  e.MMC has an industrial operating temperature rating (-40°C to 85°C) for thermal tolerance in hot or cold environments. It comes in a 153-ball fine pitch ball grid array (FBGA) package that integrates a MultiMedia Card (MMC) interface, flash memory and controller within a single IC package that is smaller than a typical postage stamp.

The integrated package allows the e.MMC to internally manage basic functions such as error correction, bad block management and wear leveling, thus freeing the host from having to perform low-level flash operations. Being soldered directly to the printed circuit board, the e.MMC is resistant against vibrations, ensuring reliable performance even during grueling operations. The compact package, ample capacity and low power consumption make the company’s e.MMC for handling big data while taking up small space.

This year’s FMS theme, Designing for big data demands encapsulates ATP’s goal to provide the most viable solutions for the tough requirements of diverse industrial applications,” said Marco Mezger, VP, global marketing, ATP. “We are very proud to introduce the new industrial e.MMC, which achieves unprecedented reliability and 2-3X the endurance of standard e.MMC solutions, thanks to the superior IC NAND flash characterization as well as intense testing and validation that ATP has always been known for.

The e.MMC v5.1 standard enables features such as Command Queuing and Cache Barrier to enhance random R/W performance; Enhanced Strobe in HS400 Mode for faster synchronization between the host and the e.MMC device; Cache Flushing Report to ensure data integrity on cache blocks; and, Secure Write Protection to ensure that only trusted entities can protect or unprotect the e.MMC device. ATP e.MMC is backward compatible with previous e.MMC versions (v4.41/v4.5/v5.0).

Intelligent management
To ensure high level of performance, utmost reliability, better endurance, and product longevity, the company’s e.MMC employs solutions such as Advanced Global Wear Leveling and SSD-level low-density parity check ECC (LDPC ECC) technology for increased endurance. AutoRefresh and Dynamic Data Refresh guard against read disturb errors while SRAM soft error detector technology monitors error bit levels during device operation to ensure data integrity; and, the Early Retirement technology prevents data loss from weak blocks.

The S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technolgy) function monitors endurance and reliability attributes to prevent unexpected data loss when the flash memory nears or reaches its end life, so device replacement plans can be made ahead of time.
