Intel to Move NOR Flash Memory Products for Embedded to 65nm Process
Technology
Shift to 65nm Provides Embedded Customers Longer Product Life and
Price/Performance
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) August 21, 2007 --
To support its embedded technology customers, Intel Corporation
announced today plans to extend its embedded NOR flash products to the
65-nanometer (nm) generation. According to the company, the move to 65nm
process technology will provide price/performance balance and ensure
support for extended product life cycles, both important factors to
original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) designing for embedded market
segments. Intel’s 65nm products, which are
typically used in consumer electronics devices, wired communications
equipment and industrial applications, are expected to start sampling to
customers in the first half of 2008.
“Most embedded designs remain in production
longer than cell phones or other consumer devices,”
said Glen Hawk, general manager, Intel Flash Products Group. “Intel
NOR wireless products are already being manufactured in high volume on
this leading edge process. We are using this knowledge and expertise to
accelerate our product development and production schedule.”
The move to 65nm process for embedded will enable Intel to support the
longer product life cycle, as well as offer enhanced product features
and cost efficiencies. Intel NOR product offerings for embedded market
segments include both parallel and serial solutions. Intel StrataFlash®
Embedded Memory (P30/P33) is Intel’s lowest
cost-per-bit, high-density, high-performance single chip code and data
solution. Intel® Embedded Flash Memory (J3
v.D) offers drop-in compatible upgrade paths for legacy designs. Its
enhanced features support mainstream embedded applications that need
value and scalability. The industry-standard Intel®
Serial Flash Memory (S33) simplifies board design and saves board space
with a low pin-count interface and smaller package for a range of
applications such as TVs, DVDs, PCs, modems and printers.
Intel, the world leader in silicon innovation, develops technologies,
products and initiatives to continually advance how people work and
live. Additional information about Intel is available at www.intel.com/pressroom.
