The type of memory a designer selects for an embedded project drives overall system operation and performance, so obviously this is a very important decision. Whether the system runs on batteries or ...

The use of RFID and contactless smart card technology is exploding and devices (e.g. tags, tokens, cards) all require embedded memory arrays that suit the needs of the application. All of these ...

To push access times toward those of SRAM while achieving much higher densities, embedded DRAM needs a structure that differs from both commodity DRAM and conventional embedded DRAM. The challenge is ...

Selecting the right amount of flash memory for an embedded application can be challenging. You want to make sure that you have enough memory to protect for future features, firmware updates, and more.

Embedded, on-chip SRAM has been a fundamental building block for custom and standard chips for quite a while. When all this began, there were typically small SRAM blocks of on-chip memory supplemented ...

The persistent need for small-density memory in today’s market. Why embedded applications need small-density NOR flash memory. What are the best options for small-density NOR flash? Companies that ...

After decades of research and development, three new types of memory—magnetic RAM (MRAM), phase change memory (PCRAM) and resistive RAM (ReRAM)—are moving toward commercial adoption, making this an ...
