The rapid evolution of automotive technology has intensified the demand for highly reliable, high-performance semiconductor memory solutions. Modern vehicles increasingly rely ADAS driving features, and complex infotainment platforms, all of which require memory that can operate flawlessly under extreme environmental… Read More
Non-volatile memory choices are becoming more complex as SoC designs push into advanced nodes, and new requirements driven by AI, new sensor technologies and stringent quality standards.
The second annual 2025 NVM Survey, completed in December, captures a market that still hangs on established technologies but is increasingly… Read More
Make a difference and take this short survey. It asks about your experience with embedded non-volatile memory technologies. The survey is anonymous, and the results will be shared in aggregate to help the industry better understand trends: 2025 Embedded Non-Volatile Memory Survey.
We are now in the AI era where data is the lifeblood… Read More
The concept of built-in self-test for electronics has been around for a while. An article in Electronic Design from 1996 declared that, “built-in self-test (BIST) is nothing new.” The memory subsystem is a particularly large and complex part of any semiconductor design, and it’s one that can be particularly vexing to test. Design… Read More
Everspin’s recent fireside chat, moderated by Robert Blum of Lithium Partners, offered a crisp look at how the company is carving out a durable niche in non-volatile memory. CEO Sanjeev Agrawal’s core message was simple: MRAM’s mix of speed, persistence, and robustness lets it masquerade as multiple memory classes, data-logging,… Read More
A recent survey of more than 120 anonymous semiconductor professionals offers a grounded view of how the industry is evaluating non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies—and where things may be heading next.
The 2024 NVM Survey, run in late 2024 and promoted through various semiconductor-related platforms and portals including… Read More
There is a revolution happening that is fueled by innovation in areas such as AI, IoT and autonomous driving. These new systems put incredible stress on next-generation semiconductor technology. Faster processing, higher density and lower latency must all be delivered with reduced power and thermal profiles. One technology… Read More
The main program for the 70th IEDM opened on Monday morning in San Francisco with an excellent keynote from Dr. Yuh-Jier Mii, Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Operating Officer at TSMC. Dr. Mii joined TSMC in 1994. Since then, he has contributed to the development and manufacturing of advanced CMOS technologies in both fab
Dan is joined by Jim Handy of Objective Analysis. Jim is a 35-year semiconductor industry executive and like Dan, a leading industry analyst, speaker, and blogger. Following marketing and design positions at Intel, National Semiconductor, and Infineon, Jim became highly respected as an analyst for his technical depth, accurate… Read More
This year’s Future of Memory and Storage Conference (formerly the Flash Memory Summit) was again very well attended. The Santa Clara Convention Center is definitely the place to be for a Silicon Valley Conference.
This post is about the Emerging Memories session organized by Dave Eggleston. We will be covering other sessions… Read More
