Toshiba Expands Lineup of Embedded NAND Flash Memory for Automotive Applications
Published2017.01.02 18:40Toshiba Corporation's Storage/Device Solutions Company announced the launch of JEDEC e·MMC™ version 5.1 compliant embedded NAND flash memory products that meet AEC-Q100 Grade 2 specifications.
The product lineup consists of 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB, and mass production is scheduled for the second quarter of 2017 (April to June).
The new product integrates NAND chips and a controller manufactured using Toshiba's advanced 15nm process technology into a single package that can manage the basic control functions of NAND applications.
Toshiba's previous e·MMC product line had an operating temperature range of -40℃ to 85℃, which is required for automotive infotainment applications, but the new product has expanded the temperature range to support applications such as device clusters that require e·MMC storage solutions with an upper operating temperature limit of 105℃.
Demand for NAND flash memory in the automotive market continues to grow, driven by advancements in automotive infotainment, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), and autonomous driving systems. Toshiba is strengthening its lineup of high-performance, high-density memory products to meet this demand and maintain its market leadership.
Toshiba is also developing automotive UFS (Universal Flash Storage) that supports AEC-Q100.

Samsung's monopoly on the 3D NAND market is entering a full-fledged nationwide era starting in the second half of the year
According to industry sources, as Toshiba, SanDisk, Micron, Intel, SK Hynix and other companies are making full-scale entries into the 3D NAND market, which was previously dominated by Samsung, fierce competition has become inevitable. Moreover, the competition among these companies also involves different technologies, which is expected to serve as a turning point in determining the future evolution direction of 3D NAND. 3D NAND is a type of flash memory semiconductor in which circuits of planar (2D) NAND are arranged vertically, and it is a technology developed to overcome the limitations that planar fine-process technology faces at the 10nm node. To put it simply, it can be thought of as converting a single-family house (2D) into an apartment complex (3D). By stacking vertically, it is known to enable faster speeds, significantly increased capacity, as well as superior stability and durability.
