MLC NAND Flash: Market, Technology, System Solutions

This 3-part webcast series addresses market issues, device technology and hardware/software design issues associated with MLC NAND Flash.
 
Denali's memory market analyst, Lane Mason, begins the series with an historical perspective of NVM in the industry, and an analysis of the NAND flash memory market, which in just a few years has moved to the forefront of the semiconductor memory market. Micron's Jim Cooke provides an in-depth look at the device technology and challenges associated with MLC NAND flash, along with comparisons and decision-making criteria for designing with SLC vs. MLC NAND flash. In the final webcast of the series, Denali's Robert Pierce, provides a detailed assessment of the latest design methods, both hardware and software, for addressing key MLC NAND issues, and concludes with examples of real-world IP solutions for MLC NAND technology.

This webcast is intended for engineers that want to learn more about the architectures, features and performance aspects of NAND flash memory. In addition, we will discuss several factors that can affect the reliability of your NAND solution and how to best alleviate them. For those who do not want to be concerned with all of the complexities of NAND, we will introduce the concept of a Managed NAND, which includes an industry-standard controller.
