Memory

Vendor of standardised and customised embedded computer boards and modules, congatec, has announced that its Intel Atom C3000 processor based conga-B7AC Server-on-Modules now support up to 96 GB DDR4 SO-DIMM memory on three sockets. This is twice the previously supported capacity, potentially setting a milestone for COM Express Type 7 based designs, as memory is important for embedded edge server technologies.

At the 2018 IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM), imec, the research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, presented a power-performance-area comparison between SRAM- and SST-MRAM-based last-level caches at the five nanometre node. 

A collaboration between Advantest and Tohoku University’s Center for Innovative Integrated Electronic Systems led by Tetsuo Endoh has successfully demonstrated operation of a high-writing-speed spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) using an Advantest memory test system.

Non-volatile memory specialist Anvo-Systems Dresden has signed a global distribution agreement with Mouser Electronics. Anvo-Systems is adding distribution partners to increase sales of its nvSRAMs and make them available to an even broader customer base.

Micron Technology has announced that its GDDR6 memory, Micron's fastest and most powerful graphics memory, will be the high-performance memory of choice supporting Achronix's next-generation stand-alone FPGA products built on TSMC 7nm process technology. 

Micron Technology has announced the next step towards market leadership for its quad-level cell (QLC) NAND technology with immediate broad market availability of the popular Micron 5210 ION enterprise SATA SSD, the world’s first QLC SSD, which began shipping to select customers and partners in May of this year. 

  Multiple USB products with their own features have been launched by TEAMGROUP. The simple, compact C185 and the C186 with classic design both have a sleek case, and smooth retractable capless design. 

In view of the current trend in which ARM technology drives the development of IoT, mobile computing and automotive electronics, and the demands for economical, efficient and compact smart devices, Apacer, an industrial memory brand, has launched a 32-bit DDR4 SODIMM which supports industrial embedded systems using ARM/RISC processors or the latest RISC-V 32-bit processors. 

Micron Technology has announced that it will collaborate with the BMW Group to further advance the development of automotive memory solutions used in vehicles. 

Micron Technology has introduced its new MT25Q NOR flash enabled with Authenta technology, providing content and command authentication to protect device functionality at the silicon level.
