Nexus adds the non-removable devices for embedding as chips, modules, cards or SSDs to its portfolio of ...

The latest report from DMASS shows a downturn in the European semiconductor business across Europe in Q2 and directly links the fall of over 20% to the effects of the global pandemic and ensuing lockdown. The report records a fall in sales of 20.7% to €1.82bn in Q2 compared to the first three months of 2020. The fall was feared ...

Some low-power strategies work for expanding memory storage in portable and implantable medical devices, says Shivendra Singh. The first challenge for system architects is to identify the right system on chip (SoC) or microcontroller to serve as the heart of the system. It must be capable of providing the desired performance while simultaneously reducing the overall system’s power budget. Peripheral ...

HotBackup is a solid state ‘live host’ backup for use in mission critical legacy systems

Fujitsu has launched a 4Mbit ferroelectric RAM (FRAM) with a quad SPI interface at Embedded World in Nuremberg. Called, MB85RQ4ML, with its four bi-directional I/O pins operating at 108MHz it can reach a data transfer rate of 54Mbyte/s. “In this respect, MB85RQ4ML is over four times as fast as our existing parallel 4Mbit FRAM device and even outperforms the 45ns parallel SRAM,” said ...

Rutronik Embedded is offering a solid-state drive (SSD) from Transcend in a 2.5-inch form factor with integrated SLC NAND flash memory and a SATA III 6Gbit/s interface. The SSD570 has sequential read/write performance of up to 510Mbyte/s and 450Mbyte/s respectively. It comes with a built-in IPS function that assures more data volume being written into flash chips in the event ...

It offers capacities up to 1Mbit with word lengths up to 288bits and supports 4, 8 and 16 Mux factors. According to the ...

Researchers from the Universities of Glasgow and Leeds have developed materials for implementing racetrack memory. Racetrack memory uses lines of nanowires. Electricity passed through the wires creates ‘domain walls’ – spaces between the wires where information can be stored. Materials are still a key question for implementing the technology. The team from Glasgow and Leeds used electron microscopy to look ...
