1. Volatile MemoryVolatile memory requires continuous power to retain data and is used for temporary storage and fast data access. It stores data in capacitors that require periodic refreshing.

 

Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM)High density and cost-effective.We carry the following subtypes: DDR or DDR1, DDR2, DDR3, DDR4, DDR5, SDRAM, LPSDR, LPDDR1, LPDDR2, LPDDR3, LPDDR4, LPDDR4x, LPDDR5, and LPDDR5x.Applications: System memory for computers, servers, and mobile devices.

 

Graphics Double Data Rate (GDDR) MemoryGDDR is a type of DRAM optimized for graphics processing and high-bandwidth applications.Designed for parallel processing with high data transfer rates and low latency.

 

We offer GDDR versions such as GDDR5, GDDR6, and GDDR7.GDDR6X employs PAM4 (Pulse Amplitude Modulation) for even higher bandwidth.Applications: Graphics cards, gaming consoles, AI accelerators, and high-performance computing.

 

Static Random Access Memory (SRAM)SRAM uses flip-flop circuits to store data without requiring periodic refresh.Faster than DRAM but less dense and more expensive.We offer Asynchronous FAST SRAM, Low Power SRAM, Synchronous SRAM, Non-volatile SRAM and Pseudo SRAM.Applications: Cache memory in CPUs, GPUs, and networking hardware.

 

2. Non-Volatile Memory (NVM)Non-volatile memory retains data without power, making it suitable for long-term storage.

 

Flash Memory

Flash memory stores data using floating-gate transistors.Electrically erasable and reprogrammable.You can find an overview of the NAND and NOR flash technologies that we carry in our section Flash Memory.Applications: Solid-state drives (SSDs), USB drives, memory cards.

 

Emerging Memory TechnologiesEmerging technologies aim to address limitations in speed, density, and scalability.

 

Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM)MRAM is a non-volatile memory technology that stores data using magnetic states instead of electrical charges like DRAM.+10 Year data retention at 89°C.Nearly unlimited endurance.

 

Applications: Automotive, IoT devices.Resistive Random Access Memory (ReRAM)ReRAM is a type of non-volatile electronic memory that stores information by changing the electrical resistance of a weakly conductive material.Very low operating current during read operations.Unlimited number of read operations.Applications:

 

Suitable for applications with high program read frequency such as AI hardware and storage-class memory.Ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM / FRAM)FeRAM is a random-access memory similar in construction to DRAM but using a ferroelectric layer to achieve non-volatility.Fast read and write at low power consumption.No need to erase data before writing.Nearly infinite rewrite endurance.Applications: Medical devices, secure systems and replacement of EEPROM or SRAM.
