08.11.2009 - Intel, Micron Advance 3-Bit-Per-Cell NAND Flash

Intel and Micron have developed new 3-bit-per-cell (3bpc) multi-level cell (MLC) NAND technology, leveraging their 34-nanometer (nm) manufacturing NAND process. The chips, which Micron is sampling now, are typically used in consumer storage devices such as flash cards and USB drives, where high density and cost-efficiency are paramount. This new 3bpc NAND technology produces the industry’s smallest and most cost-effective 32-gigabit (Gb) chip that is currently available on the market. - View Press Release - Visit Intel Corporation
