Toshiba Launches New Embedded NAND Flash Memory Modules Using 19nm Second Generation Process Technology
- New Products Compliant with JEDEC e・MMCTM Version 5.0--
The company’s new 32-gigabyte (GB) embedded device integrates four 64Gbit (equal to 8GB) NAND chips fabricated with Toshiba's cutting-edge 19nm second generation process technology and a dedicated controller into a small package measuring only 11.5 x 13 x 1.0mm. It is compliant with JEDEC e·MMCTM Version 5.0, published by JEDEC in September, and achieves a high read/write performance by applying the new HS400 high speed interface standard.
Toshiba will bring the NAND chips to a line-up of single-package embedded NAND flash memories in densities from 4GB to 128GB. All will integrate a controller to manage basic control functions for NAND applications.
Following 16GB and 32GB products, Toshiba will release 4GB, 8GB, 64GB and 128GB products in turn.
Key Features
1. The JEDEC e·MMCTM V5.0 compliant interface handles essential functions, including writing block management, error correction and driver software. It simplifies system development, allowing manufacturers to minimize development costs and speed up time to market for new and upgraded products.
2. Embedded in a system, the 128GB module can record up to 2,222 hours of music at a 128Kbps bit rate, 16.6 hours of full spec high definition video and 38.4 hours of standard definition video[2].
3. The new products apply NAND flash memory chips fabricated with leading-edge 19nm second generation process technology.
4. The new products are sealed in a small FBGA package measuring just 11.5 x 13mm and has a signal layout compliant with the JEDEC e·MMCTM V5.0.
