SUNNYVALE, USA: Spansion Inc., a leading provider of NOR Flash memory, announced a collaboration with Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) and Dave, a system design company in Italy, to bring high performance and interactivity to home automation and industrial controls.
Dave is building complete CPU modules, such as the Lizard board, with 1Gb Spansion GL NOR Flash memory and TI AM3517 or AM3505 Sitara ARM microprocessors, to provide rich 2D and 3D graphic interfaces with real-time feedback to deliver the fastest interactive user experience.
Home automation systems are growing in popularity as a tool to connect both electronic devices within a home, as well as to the developing smart energy grid. Sophisticated software required to manage and monitor home electronics is driving the need for high-performance processing and memory. With these systems bringing consumers more convenience, security and energy cost savings, home automation systems are expected to exceed $11.8 billion in shipments in 2015 according to ABI Research studies.
The Spansion GL NOR Flash family is ideally suited to these industrial applications with industry-leading read performance to speed system boot and increase application interactivity while providing high reliability, extended operating temperature range, longevity of product supply and a universal package footprint to enable simple upgrades for varying density requirements.
