Samsung's 1Gbit Flash Memory
Electronic News, Oct 25, 1999 by Tom Murphy
SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS Co., Seoul, Korea, has developed a 1Gbit NAND flash memory prototype storage media for portable digital products. The company said they are the first to apply a 0.15-micron design rule to NAND flash memory. The 1Gbit flash memory chip can store up to 560 SXGA-quality (1,280 by 1,024 pixels) photographs or 32 CD-quality songs.
Greater memory capacity has made the new device a storage medium for next-generation portable information products, such as digital cameras, MP3 players, and PDAs. Samsung Electronics has applied its existing DRAM processing technology to the flash memory. The Flash cards are scheduled to go into mass production in 2001.
