The Next Generation of Non-Volatile Memory
Widely touted as the most promising alternative to traditional non-volatile memory, Crossbar RRAM’s simplicity, stackability and CMOS compatibility enable logic and memory to be easily integrated onto a single chip at the latest technology node, a capability not possible with other traditional or alternative non-volatile memory technologies. With 16x the density compared to existing memory solutions, Crossbar enables unprecedented data storage and retrieval in a minimal footprint and with minimal cost. Delivering 10x better endurance than current NAND solutions, Crossbar RRAM will also extend the life of SSDs and other non-volatile devices.
Crossbar continues to hit all the major milestones necessary to bring this new generation of non-volatile memory to market. The company emerged from stealth mode in August 2013 with a working memory array at a commercial fab, and announced in June 2014 pre-production 1MB arrays using patented “1TnR” selectivity for read/write operations. Today’s announcement represents yet another critical technical achievement, bringing Crossbar RRAM one step closer to commercialization, and fulfilling its promise to deliver a new generation of extremely dense, highly reliable and high performance solid-state storage.
