Toshiba announces 'eMMC-based memory architectures' webcast

IRVINE, USA: Toshiba America Electronic Components Inc. (TAEC), has announced the availability of an "eMMC-based Memory Architectures" webcast, presented by Scott Beekman, senior manager, Mobile Memory for TAEC and hosted on the Denali Software website.

High-density NAND embedded memory solutions are enabling new capabilities in mobile phones and consumer electronics devices. The JEDEC/MMCA standard for embedded MultiMediaCards, eMMC, defines a standard interface for a simple read/write memory using an MMC controller with MLC NAND flash that can be configured as either MLC NAND (two-bit per cell) for economical data storage or as SLC NAND (one-bit per cell) for code storage.

This standard has been growing in popularity over the past few years. The latest version, e-MMC V4.4, offers additional flexibility in partitioning MLC vs. SLC storage areas, new security and write protection capabilities, and simplifies embedding in products, to help reduce development burdens on product manufacturers.

It is applicable for use in a wide range of digital consumer products, including Smartphones, mobile phones, netbooks and digital video cameras. This webcast will review the new features of eMMC v4.4, and discuss how it can be integrated into mobile phones or other CE device depending on requirements for space, capacity, portioning requirements and more.
