BPM Reduces NAND Programming for STMicro
December 10, 2007 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
HOUSTON BPM Microsystems reduced programming time for STMicroelectronics' NAND flash large-page family, in densities from 1 to 8 Gbit. BPM produced faster programming times on the Flashstream memory programmer.
The Flashstream programs four 1-Gb STMicro NAND01 devices in 19.8 sec., according to the company. This includes full data pattern. BPM added a software feature to enable use of factory-cache programming modes in conjunction with the Flashstream's Vector engine co-processor for added speed. The Vector hardware is designed to accelerate waveforms with minimal latencies from the programmer.
Flashstream can program four parts simultaneously, while providing serialization and bad-block management. These features can enable digital-rights-management keys, lot tracking on-chip, and other functions. A NAND options tool also is included in Flashstream's software.
