Tech Ticker

Toshiba has bested its previous record of non-volatile RAM by developing FeRAM (Ferroelectric Random Access Memory) that boasts the world’s highest bandwidth and density present in non-volatile RAMs. The new chip, though stores only 128Megabits of data, it has a fast read/write speed of 1.6GB per second.

The FeRAM makes use of modified chainFeRAM architecture to prevent cell signal degradation and predicts and controls the power supply fluctuation that supports data transfers. The FeRAM supports DDR2 interface that is instrumental to achieve high data throughput by consuming low power.

More details will be revealed at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference 2009 (ISSCC2009) in San Francisco, USA this week.
