NSCore's OTP-IP exceeds 55 million pieces threshold

FUKUOKA, JAPAN: NSCore Inc., a leading provider of non-volatile memory (NVM) intellectual property (IP), has announced that the cumulative shipment equipped with its PermSRAM non-volatile memory IP has exceeded the 55 million pieces threshold.

With its reliable programming, 10+ year lifetime, and read voltages down to 1.0V, PermSRAM has proven to be a technology leader in the one time programmable (OTP) NVM marketplace.

Primary production nodes today are the 130nm and 180nm generations and licensees are mass-producing about 5 million pieces a month. Mass production for the 65nm process generation will be launched in Q1 2011. The majority of shipped devices thus far are in the 1Kbit to 32Kbit density range and are primarily used in the flat panel display market.

In the second half of 2010, PermSRAM volume shipments will expand to the 256bit fuse type macro used for power controllers which require very accurate trimming after packaging. PermSRAM is well suited for this type of application with its field programmable capability and provides advantages over traditional fuse technology that has to be programmed before packaging.
