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 ...

Non-volatile memory or non-volatile storage is a computer memory which allows the retrieval of information even in the absence of power source. The circuit incorporates the technology of Electrically ...

Most applications that require a microcontroller also require somemechanism to store settings that will be remembered even when power isremoved. For example, a radio that forgets its station presets ...

Today Intel Corporation and Micron Technology unveiled 3D XPoint technology, a non-volatile memory that has the potential to revolutionize any device, application or service that benefits from fast ...

The Wintel band is getting back together. NAND flash SSDs have revolutionized the storage world in the last 10 years. But non-volatile memory (NVM) is a much bigger deal than SSDs could ever be. Intel ...

Intel and Micron unveiled a novel new kind of non-volatile data storage device during a press conference on Tuesday. The chips, dubbed "3D XPoint" (pronounced "cross-point"), are being touted as the ...

HGST will be demonstrating its breakthrough persistent memory fabric at the Flash Memory Summit 2015, Santa Clara, Ca., over the next couple of days. The firm's Phase Change Memory (PCM) based tech is ...

Non-volatile memories such as flash memory are transforming data centers, client computers and consumer applications. They have led to new interfaces and developments in software that take advantage ...

LONDON – IMEC, the independent research organization that specializes in IC design and manufacturing processes, has developed a prototype non-volatile memory cell capable of storing 9-bits. The ...

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.

At some point when developing embedded applications, you’re going to want to store unique values in non-volatile memory, values that can’t be fixed at compilation time. Many microcontrollers have a ...
