How it works Samsung 27nm NAND memory 4GB, 32 billion memory cells
History 1955: Magnetic-core memory 0,1-1mm Today: NAND Flash memory <20nm
Manufacturing Photolithography 34nm ~400 memory chips per wafer
Properties Advantages • Cheap • Small • Capacity (?) • Volatility (?) Drawbacks • Slow
Multi Level Cell • Store more than one bit in each cell. • Cheaper • Problems • eMLC
SONOS • Silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon • Better isolation – less leakage
3D Flash Memory 16GB – Samsung say 128GB within a year.
MRAM Magnetoresistive RAM
