Overview

NSCore's PermSRAM(R) is the only embedded CMOS, one time programmable (OTP), non-volatile RAM IP of its kind, utilizing the 'hot carrier effect' to trap charge in the sidewall spacer of the gate. PermSRAM provides the benefits of Embedded Flash without the additional process cost in a secure, on-chip memory configuration qualified under automotive conditions. PermSRAM IP is available for mainstream foundries as well as several undisclosed Japanese IDM's. Please contact us to learn how our NVM IP can be used to replace EEPROM or ROM combined with on-chip SRAM for applications requiring extreme security such as HDMI or requiring analog trimming such as LCD controllers.

How to Elevate RRAM and MRAM Design Experience to the Next Level

This article will explore the potential advantages of RRAM and MRAM in various applications and elucidate why such new technologies are imperative to address future memory demands, as well as some challenges designers may encounter in the implementation.

Unleashing EEPROM Potential by Going Embedded: Introducing eMemory's NeoEE

EEPROM memory, which recently celebrated its 50th birthday, continues to defy obsolescence. Despite its age, EEPROM remains a mature, reliable, and affordable technology for many electronic systems. As IC designers embed EEPROM onto chips, it has become an integral part of chip design, offering essential benefits to applications such as MCU, PMIC, sensors, and RFID tags.

Calibrate and Configure your Power Management IC with NVM IP

Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs) are the first to turn on and the last to turn off in a system. They perform the task of delivering the right voltage to component chips by regulating or boosting the voltage levels to the component chips.

How eNVM Helps Power Controllers Be Smarter

PMIC designers have learned that using eNVMs like OTP in their chips can be very beneficial. A simple state machine with OTP can store power sequences and parameters, which can help manage the power between ICs efficiently.

NVM memory: A Critical Design Consideration for IoT Applications

The explosion of information that IoT devices will gather will require huge numbers of processors to process and manage the data from these IoT devices along with lots of low-cost, secure and reliable embedded non-volatile memory (NVM) for code storage, sensor trimming, device configuration, security keys and other storage functions. Virtually every one of the projected billions of IoT devices can use some amount of one-time programmable (OTP) memory.
