NAND Flash for Mobile Multimedia


Superior Mass Storage
Our e·MMC embedded memory combines high-quality, low-cost NAND Flash memory with a high-speed, JEDEC-compliant MultiMediaCard (MMC) controller in a single, low-profile BGA package. The single-package solution is a great choice for designers who are looking for MMC-like, application-to-application interoperability. And because we manufacture the NAND, we can offer e·MMC solutions in a variety of densities and options; contact us for inquiries and more information.

Easy to Design In
Our e·MMC embedded memory essentially transforms a program/erase/read device like NAND Flash into a simple write/read memory. This managed interface addresses potential NAND design concerns internally, using error correction code (ECC), wear leveling, and bad block management technology. Handling errors internally takes the burden off the host controller and increases speed, providing higher system performance.

Streamlined Development and Qualification
e·MMC embedded memory also simplifies hardware and software integration by providing a standard interface specification that minimizes the need for host software to accommodate process node migrations and vendor-specific NAND Flash characteristics. It’s a consistent, technology-independent solution that streamlines the development and qualification process and alleviates complexities of designing in current and future NAND devices.
