Micron Introduces New NAND and Low-Power DRAM Multi-Chip Packages Built on the Industry's Most Advanced Processes
BOISE, Idaho - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Micron Technology, Inc. (NYSE:MU) today announced the company has
combined the industry's leading 34-nanometer (nm) 4Gb SLC NAND flash
memory and 50nm 2Gb LPDDR to produce the most advanced NAND-LPDDR MCP
combination in the market. Micron's new 4Gb NAND-2Gb LPDDR MCP is
targeted at smart phones, personal media players and emerging MIDs where
small form factor, low-cost and power savings are critical features.
Micron is currently sampling the 4Gb NAND-2Gb LPDDR MCP with customers
and expects to be in volume production in early 2010. The 4Gb NAND-2Gb
LPDDR combination is targeted at mainstream densities in today's mobile
devices, but Micron has the flexibility to support higher densities - up
to 8Gb NAND and 8Gb LPDDR - as the mobile market integrates
sophisticated multimedia functionality. Visit the Micron
Innovations blog to learn more about Micron's new MCP products and
read an insider's perspective on the shifting mobile memory landscape.
"With Micron's 34nm 4Gb NAND and 50nm 2Gb LPDDR monolithic die used in
this package, we are providing customers with the most advanced solution
available in NAND-based MCPs," said Eric Spanneut, director of mobile
memory marketing. "By combining the industry's leading NAND and DRAM
processes within our new generation of MCPs, we are able to easily
accommodate the shift to high-density NAND devices as the industry
progresses toward multi-function mobile devices."
In addition to its MCP portfolio, Micron also offers a host of memory
products for the mobile market, including discrete NAND and LPDRAM
parts, eâMMC 4.4 managed NAND solutions and NANDcode
software. By working closely with the entire mobile value chain,
including operating system and chipset vendors, Micron is in a unique
position to offer customers a rich portfolio of engineering support and
solutions for their respective design needs.
