The late 1990s saw the widespread introduction of solid-state storage based around NAND Flash. Ranging from memory cards for portable devices to storage for desktops and laptops, the data storage ...

Unlike scaling practices in 2D NAND technology, the direct way to reduce bit costs and increase chip density in 3D NAND is by adding layers. In 2013, Samsung shipped the first V-NAND product using 24 ...

Amid the ongoing memory downturn, 3D NAND suppliers continue to race each other to the next technology generations with several challenges and a possible shakeout ahead. Micron, Samsung, SK Hynix and ...

Japanese DRAM maker Elpida Memory will soon become a player in the global NAND flash memory market when it starts selling its own flash products. The company on Wednesday expanded an alliance with ...

Within a few years, you’ll likely be carrying a smartphone, tablet or laptop with hundreds of gigabytes or even terabytes of hyper fast, non-volatile memory, thanks to two memory developments unveiled ...

As the artificial intelligence (AI) industry grows, a shortage in memory semiconductors centered on DRAM is emerging, while demand for NAND flash is also rising sharply, intensifying competition to ...

3D Xpoint (pronounced "crosspoint") is designed in a 3D structure, like some of the cutting-edge 3D NAND we've discussed. Unlike NAND, however, 3D Xpoint doesn't use an electrical charge to store data ...
