Silicon has been with us for many decades but will need a replacement. For NAND storage, it has become increasingly difficult to progress by shrinking the process. The chief way to combat this is to ...

Without a doubt, 3D NAND is the future. 2D planar NAND is already at its limitations and everyone in the memory industry is already making the switch to 3D for their next generation products. While ...

The NAND flash business is transitioning from the process that has been used for the past 20-odd years (let's call it "2D") and the new process that promises to carry the technology through the end of ...

Many of you will remember when Samsung launched its V-NAND 3D NAND product back in August. Samsung has said that 3D NAND is the future of storage and it fundamentally changes the way NAND flash is ...

There is a growing demand for higher-density NAND flash across the global storage market. For the time being, this demand has been satisfied through many developments, not only in the capabilities of ...

NEO Semiconductor has announced that it has developed the "world's first 3D NAND-like DRAM cell array," which aims to increase DRAM chip density using established 3D stacking technology. Designed to ...

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 ...

If you haven’t heard of BeSang Inc, it is the company that invented and licenses 3D monolithic chip technology to SK hynix. According to a report published by the EE Times, BeSang has become ...

Planar NAND flash memory is nearing its practical scaling limits, posing significant challenges for the memory industry. 3D NAND technology is poised to make a dramatic impact by keeping flash storage ...
