Overview

The Universal NAND Flash Controller (IPM-UNFC) IP core is designed specifically to enable commodity Flash memory to be effectively used in enterprise storage applications requiring high reliability and large interconnect bandwidth. Using the pre-validated IPM-UNFC IP allows greatly reduced time-to-market for storage OEMs desiring higher IOPS benefitting from lower cost SLC, MLC , TLC & QLC NandFlash memory.
 
The IPM-UNFC is full-featured, easy to use in FPGA and SoC designs. For ease of integration with the system interfaces, three native backends (AXI, Avalon and RAM) are provided. The IP core allows page size configuration, spare size per channel.

NandFlash interface

 The NAND flash interface handles all the hardware compliant process (command, address and data sequences). It is ONFI 5.x compliant. Data and Metadata can be protected by the ECC by using configurable data block size (e.g. 1024 bytes + x metadata bytes.) 

Key features

  • ONFI 5.X Compliant
  • SLC / MLC / TLC / QLC
  • SDR modes 0 to 5
  • NVDDR modes 0 to 5
  • NVDDR-2 modes 0 to 8
  • NVDDR-3 modes 0 to 10
  • NV-LPDDR4 modes 0 to 15
  • AXI or Avalon interface
  • Optional DMA interface

Enabling security in embedded system using M.2 SSD

Storage technologies are evolving at a high speed, thanks to new generations of memories such as Nandflash, ReRAM, MRAM and other flavors. That leads in an incredible performance increase in term of bandwidth and latency. By the way, security and data privacy features are still an important feature for critical storage systems.

NVMe host IP for computing accelerator

NVM Express (NVMe) SSDs are well adopted by the storage industry. It delivers high performances in term of IOPS, throughput and latency. It comes with a various range of capacity and form factors including PCIe Add-In-Card, 2.5" U.2, M.2 and recently as a single BGA chip.

NVMe IP for Enterprise SSD

Most of SSD manufacturers jumped into this new storage market with flash-based technology. A second wave of products will come in the near future, using a new generation of non-volatile memories, delivering impressive speed performances compared to NandFlash memories. The SSD manufacturers will have to deal with low latency SSD controller design in order to benefit from the new NVM features, while keeping high reliability and low power consumption. This white paper proposes a solution based on a full hardware NVMe implementation, describing its architecture, implementation and characterization.
