A 3D write-once memory structure from Matrix Semiconductor Inc., Santa Clara, Calif., promises to achieve a cost so low—just $0.02 to $0.03 per megabyte—that the ...

Even as a mature, diverse and reliable technology—magnetic spinning disk drives (aka hard disk drives or “HDDs”) continue to grow in capacity, performance and cost benefits. Alternative storage ...

For decades, the goal has been to create a random access memory (RAM) that is non-volatile like flash storage but with the speed and addressability of a RAM chip. Such technology would dramatically ...

Non-volatile memory (NVM) systems represent a transformative shift in data storage, blending the speed of conventional memory with the endurance of persistent storage. These systems enable data to ...

Storage and memory are the two major holding areas for programs and data in a computer, tablet or smartphone, and their interplay is the fundamental architecture of computer processing. Unfortunately, ...

This is the second in a set of three blogs about projections for digital storage and memory for the following year that we have been doing for a while. Our first blog focused on the latest ...

This article is part of the Technology Insight series, made possible with funding from Intel. A couple of years back, IDC predicted that by 2025 the average person will interact with connected devices ...

SK hynix's rumored HBS (High Bandwidth Storage) uses stacked mobile DRAM and NAND chips into a single package, for next-gen ...

The idea of combining memory and storage into one component has been around for a long time, but up until now, it was nowhere near becoming a reality. However, that might be about to change.

The IEEE puts on a series of conferences that focus on semiconductor devices, heterogenous integration and other nanotechnologies, with sessions on solid state memory technologies. These include the ...

Memory and storage is one of, if not the, fastest changing area in our industry. Here we offer a few of the latest products that might change your next design for the better. UNH-IOL at the Flash ...
