Cypress Introduces Semper NOR Flash Memory Products

Cypress has announced the official launch of the Semper NOR flash memory product line. The product family is designed for automotive and industrial applications and provides users with the industry's best security and reliability assurance. The architecture and design of the Semper flash product family is designed to be trouble-free. The embedded car safety system is the first storage product to meet the ISO 26262 functional safety standard. This product line complies with the requirements of the automotive industry and ASIL-B functional safety standards. In automotive and industrial extreme temperature applications, Can provide excellent durability and data retention.

Rainer Hoehler, vice president of Cypress's flash memory division, stated: 'The safety and reliability of storage are the primary considerations for autonomous driving and industrial applications. Therefore, we have introduced a new Semper family of flash memory that meets functional safety requirements. The relevant standards to be able to circumvent system failures. Even in harsh environments, the Semper product family offers the industry's best read bandwidth, instant start-up, high ruggedness, and long-term data storage capabilities for long-term reliability. Performance experience. '

With Cypress's EnduraFlex architecture, Semper flash products can be partitioned into multiple partitions, and each partition's durability and long-term storage capabilities are individually optimized to simplify system design. For frequent data writes, Through the partition configuration of the Semper Flash, 512Mb density products can achieve up to 1.28 million program erases, while 1Gb density products can achieve up to 2.56 million program wipes. For code and configuration storage, by configuring a single Partitions can achieve up to 25 years of data retention.

The Semper family of flash memory products includes the AEC-Q100 automotive certification product, extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, 1.8V and 3.0V operating voltage range, and 512Mb to 4Gb storage density. The product offers the Quad SPI. Different choices of Octal SPI and HyperBusTM interfaces. Among them, the Octal and HyperBus interface products conform to the JEDEC xSPI standard as high performance x8 NOR flash memory and provide 400 MBps read bandwidth.

Ray Cornyn, vice president and general manager of NXP Automotive Power Systems Solutions, stated: "By matching NXP's MCU and SoC products with Cypress's HyperBus storage products, NXP has successfully met the rapidly growing demand for memory. Demand. Cypress's next-generation Semper NOR flash product family with HyperBus interface is designed to meet future market demands for security and reliability, and will therefore help us achieve even greater success.

Availability Currently, Cypress's 512Mb Semper flash memory products are in the stage of sampling to key customers, and mature samples will be available in 4Q2018. Using 24-ball grid array (BGA), 16-pin SOIC and 8 -contact WSON packaged products, expected to be in volume production in the first quarter of 2019.
