tekboy, on this comparison with SSTI and SNDK!
boards.fool.com >>However, the density of their chips is nowhere as high as that of its rivals. While Intel's already capable of making 16 MB chips, and AMD's rolling out with 8 MB designs, SSTI's stuck at the 2 MB level right now.<<
HOWEVER, This from SSTI website!!

>>This application note describes the SST39VF160 - SST?s 16 Mbit (x16) MPF product and compares it to other 16 Mbit product offerings from AMD, ST Microelectronics, Fujitsu, Intel and Atmel. It describes hardware and software differences between SST and other products and discusses how to design the SST39VF160 MPF product into existing designs based on products from other vendors.
SST39VF160 is organized as 1 Mbit x16, and reads, programs, and erases with a single 2.7-3.6V power supply. The device is offered in 48-pin TSOP and 48-ball TFBGA packages. In this application note, the discussion is focused on TSOP package type.
SST also offers 8 Mbit, 4 Mbit, and 2 Mbit products in its x16 MPF product family: SST39VF800A, SST39VF400A, and SST39VF200A. These products read, program, and erase with a single 2.7-3.6V power supply voltage and is offered in 48-pin TSOP and 48-ball TFBGA packages. Since all four products in the family have same pinouts and the only difference between them is the most significant address, the analogy developed in comparison of 16 Mbit products in this application note can be applied to lower density products when one compares SST products with equivalent products from other vendors. |
