Semiconductor Insights Gives Impressive Review for Micron’s NAND and DRAM Process Technology

Semiconductor Insights (SI), a leading technical advisor that provides in-depth technical review and patent analyses of integrated circuits and structures, recently reviewed two of Micron’s industry-leading process technology developments from 2008. Posted to its website, SI outlines its initial findings of Micron’s latest 50nm 1Gbit DDR2 SDRAM and Micron’s 32Gb 34nm NAND Flash. The company describes Micron’s 32Gb 34nm NAND Flash as having “the highest density (32Gbit) monolithic MLC NAND Flash that the NAND Flash industry has seen to date.” For Micron’s 50nm 1Gb DDR2 they state it has an “impressive die area,” and “features the most advanced Micron DRAM process technology Semiconductor Insights (SI) has analyzed to date.”

Two Micron Engineers Recognized for Technical Innovation

Congratulations are in order for two Micron engineers – Todd Farrell and George Pax – for their contributions to memory device and module standards. Earlier this week, JEDEC, the leading developer of standards for the memory industry, announced that Todd and George have been presented with the highly prestigious JEDEC Technical Recognition Awards. Given by the JEDEC Board of Directors, the Technical Recognition Award is JEDEC’s most significant award for technical achievement and acknowledges outstanding contributions to technology standardization.
