Gbit MRAM Debuts at Flash Summit Everspin adds to the persistent memory pool Rick Merritt 8/7/2017 08:00 AM EDT SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Everspin announced it is sampling a Gbit MRAM chip and will be in production this year with 1-2 Gbyte cards based on its 256 Mbit chip. The news at the Flash Memory Summit here marks a small but significant advance for a growing collection of persistent memories at an event focused on the still rising market for mainstream NAND. Everspin hopes its products find sockets replacing DRAM in solid state drives and flash-storage arrays as a non-volatile buffer and write cache. The cards will deliver up to seven million I/O operations/second and 2 microsecond latencies using special Windows and Linux drivers Everspin is releasing as open source. [....] Data center interest in NAND flash arrays is driving much of the race to higher capacities. Several new storage systems packed with SSDs are now being qualified by Web giants as the next step in storage beyond the hard-disk arrays they have adopted. “The next nine months should be a tipping point in deployments, and I think it’s going to be pretty big,” said Roger Peene, a marketing director for flash controllers and PCIe switches at Microsemi Corp. Despite this year’s spike in flash and memory prices generally, “I don’t think people are hitting the brakes. The challenge is getting the supply to meet deployments,” Peene said. By contrast volumes for MRAMs, ReRAMs and other new memories “are rather muted…the technology is in its infancy and the prices are high,” he said. more at eetimes.com
