  • Micron: NAND Flash Architecture and Specification Trends
    NAND Flash Architecture and Specification Trends Michael Abraham ([email protected]) Applications Engineering Manager Micron Technology, Inc. Santa Clara, CA USA August 2009 1 Abstract As NAND Flash continues to shrink, page sizes, block sizes, and ECC requirements are increasing while data retention, endurance, and performance are decreasing. These changes impact systems including random write performance and more. Learn how to prepare for these changes and counteract some of them through improved block management techniques and system design. This presentation also discusses some of the tradeoff myths – for example, the myth that you can directly trade ECC for endurance Santa Clara, CA USA August 2009 2 NAND Flash: Shrinking Faster Than Moore’s Law 200 100 Logic 80 DRAM on (nm) ii 60 NAND Resolut 40 Micron 32Gb NAND (34nm) 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Semiconductor International, 1/1/2007 Santa Clara, CA USA August 2009 3 Memory Organization Trends Over time, NAND block size is increasing. • Larger page sizes increase sequential throughput. • More pages per block reduce die size. 4,194,304 1,048,576 262,144 65,536 16,384 4,096 1, 024 256 64 16 Block size (B) Data Bytes per Page Pages per Block Santa Clara, CA USA August 2009 4 Consumer-grade NAND Flash: Endurance and ECC Trends Process shrinks lead to less electrons ppgger floating gate.

For consumer applications, endurance becomes less important as density increases.

  • 2018, but We Are Not Done by Any Means
    Dear Shareholders, Today, we are pleased to review a year which includes numerous positive fundamental developments. At Himax Technologies, we pride ourselves not only on defending our position as the market leader in our sector, in terms of quality, reliability, and execution, but also on our ability to pair aggressive development aspirations with creating long-term shareholder value. In this regard, we believe we have accomplished a great deal in 2018, but we are not done by any means. 2018 was a year of new developments in our technology sector and our markets. At Himax Technologies, we have successfully leveraged our strengths to navigate both market dynamics as well as company specific opportunities to deliver a solid year of growth for shareholders. Further, we proactively initiated and executed several strategic initiatives to strengthen our operation and streamline R&D investments. We believe these proactive strategies reinforced our status in the marketplace and further strengthened our ability to defend our position as a market leader. Additionally, our execution in 2018 positions us for future growth well beyond 2018. Despite a challenging global economic environment, we are more optimistic about the opportunities ahead as several of our industry-leading technologies are at or nearing key inflection points. As a result, we expect to enter a period of substantial growth in the near future. Now, let me briefly go through each of our major business segments. Being a global leader in the display driver IC (DDIC) segment, we have been benefiting from China’s continued capacity expansion of its panel manufacturing as well as the Chinese smartphone makers’ rapid overseas expansion.

  • Competitive Semiconductor Manufacturing: Final Report on Findings from Benchmarking Eight-Inch, Sub-350Nm Wafer Fabrication Lines
    Competitive Semiconductor Manufacturing: Final Report on Findings from Benchmarking Eight-inch, sub-350nm Wafer Fabrication Lines Robert C. Leachman Competitive Semiconductor Manufacturing Program Engineering Systems Research Center 3115 Etcheverry Hall University of California at Berkeley Berkeley, CA 94720-1750 March 31, 2002 Executive Summary Competitive Semiconductor Manufacturing (CSM) is an interdisciplinary research program at the University of California at Berkeley. Faculty, scholars and graduate students from the College of Engineering, the School of Business Administration and the Dept. of Economics participate in the program. Originally funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, since 1998 the program has been entirely funded by industry sponsors. A major element of the CSM program is to survey world-wide fabrication performance and managerial practices. This report summarizes findings from benchmarking ten manufacturing facilities processing eight-inch silicon wafers to fabricate digital devices with feature sizes of 350nm and smaller. All of these fabrication plants were constructed in the 1993 – 1996 time frame. Performance data were collected from each participant for some or all of the time frame 1996 – 2000. The individual identities of the participants are confidential. Sponsors of this survey include SEMATECH, the Electronics Industry Association of Japan, the Semiconductor Research Institute of Japan, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp., United Microelectronics Corp., Winbond Electronics, Samsung Electronics Corp.,

NAND has been the only commodity memory with no standard interface – Command set, timings, and pin-out are similar among vendors NAND has been ripe for standardization due to a few inflection points: – 1) Explosion in use of NAND for MP3 players, phones, caches, and SSDs – 2) Increase in number of NAND vendors serving the market (2 to 6+) ONFi Workgroup was formed in May 2006 to address “gap” – ONFI = Open NAND Flash Interface ONFi revision 1.0 delivered in December 2006, defines: – Uniform NAND electrical and protocol interface • Raw NAND component interface for embedded use • Includes timings, electrical, protocol • Standardized base command set – Uniform mechanism for device to report its capabilities to the host ONFI 1.0 sets a solid foundation for NAND (r)evolution. 4 A-Data Afa Technologies Alcor Micro Aleph One Anobit Tech.
