  • Using Nandrive in ARM-Based Systems
    Tech Brief Using NANDrive™ in ARM®-based Systems The ARM® architecture is based on an extremely flexible and powerful processor core, making it an ideal choice to license for numerous companies manufacturing embedded processors. Processors from these companies feature heavily in embedded systems and although they have the same basic core, the peripherals and I/O will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer based on the end applications. A common theme, however, is the ARM bus architecture and the standard interfaces and peripherals that it supports. The popularity of the ARM core architecture means that there is a well established ecosystem of software and driver support making these processors an excellent choice for embedded systems. Memory Subsystem The adoption of a specific processor core may be application dependent, but the choices when considering the memory subsystem will largely depend upon the peripheral IP implemented by the processor vendor. CAN Bus Networking Applications that require an embedded operating system will benefit from a managed NAND subsystem and ARM-based processors offer excellent support LPDDR Wireless for this. One such example is the Embedded Multi Media Card (eMMC) protocol ARM support. In addition, using Greenliant NANDrive™ as the managed memory NOR Audio subsystem means there is no requirement to customize the memory interface. Platform The powerful, energy-efficient cores offered by ARM together with the proven Display USB peripheral IP make this technology well-suited for portable and embedded applications. NANDrive is the ideal choice for mass storage in these applications because it is surface mounted and has a small footprint. As a solid Touch Control state device, it is more robust mechanically than a traditional hard disk drive.

McLean of DLA Piper LLP (US) for Greenliant Systems, Ltd. Kelley L. Wells, Trademark Examining Attorney, Law Office 105 (Thomas G. Howell, Managing Attorney). _______ Before Bucher, Taylor and Bergsman, Administrative Trademark Judges. Opinion by Bergsman, Administrative Trademark Judge: Greenliant Systems, Ltd. (“applicant”) seeks to register the mark NANDRIVE on the Principal Register, in standard character form, for “electronic integrated circuits,” in Class 9.1 Applicant claimed first use of its mark anywhere and first use of the mark in commerce at least as early as February 27, 2007. 1 Applicant is the successor to Silicon Storage Technology, Inc., the original applicant. The assignment of the mark and use-based application was recorded in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on June 2, 2010, at reel 4216, frame 0821. Serial No. 78724139 Applicant’s specimen of use comprising a photograph of the mark applied to the goods is displayed below. The Trademark Examining Attorney refused to register applicant’s mark under Section 2(e)(1) of the Trademark Act of 1946, 15 U.S.C. §1052(e)(1), on the ground that applicant’s mark is merely descriptive. According to the Examining Attorney, “applicant’s electronic integrated circuits are memory storage devices which utilize NAND flash memory technology or are flash memory drives. The applicant’s goods are NAND drives.”2 While maintaining the position that its mark is not merely descriptive, applicant requested that NANDRIVE be allowed to register on the Principal Register under Section 2(f) or, in the alternative, on the Supplemental Register.
