MemoryInfineon Enters Flash Memory Market.Largest German Memory Maker Brings 512Mb Flash ChipCategory: Memory by Anton Shilov [ 01/08/2004 | 04:23 PM ]
Infineon Technologies, the largest DRAM maker in
TwinFlash is realized in Saifun NROM technology, a non-volatile memory technology developed by Saifun Semiconductors, and proven in the past as basis for NOR-Flash and EEPROM, which stores two locally separated bits in one transistor cell. Compared to competing single-bit-per-cell floating gate technologies with equivalent process structures TwinFlash offers 40% smaller die sizes due to its two-bit-per-cell approach and less mask levels resulting in a competitive production cost position. By the end of 2004 more than 10 000 wafer starts per month on 0.17 micron technology are planned. The next TwinFlash technology node with feature sizes of only 0.11 micron is being developed to further improve cost position and to enable larger densities of up to 2Gb. The 512Mb flash chips from Infineon comes in a TSOP package and is targeting the removable solid state storage market with products like SD-, MMC-, Compact-Flash-Cards or memory sticks mainly used for Digital Still Cameras and PDAs.
