A long-running problem in the computer world is that DRAM is the fastest memory available but also volatile, so it can't hold onto its data when power is shut off. This makes it useless for data ...

Non-volatile memory (NVM) systems and architectures have emerged as pivotal components in modern computing, offering the combined benefits of data persistence and enhanced energy efficiency. With ...

This FAQ will look at a lesser-known but commercially available RAM technology called resistive random-access memory (RRAM) ...

A research team has developed hardware and software technology that ensures both data and execution persistence. The Lightweight Persistence Centric System (LightPC) makes the systems resilient ...

This article is part of the Technology Insight series, made possible with funding from Intel. A couple of years back, IDC predicted that by 2025 the average person will interact with connected devices ...

The search continues for new non-volatile memories (NVMs) to challenge the existing incumbents, but before any technology can be accepted, it must be proven reliable. “Everyone is searching for a ...

The type of memory a designer selects for an embedded project drives overall system operation and performance, so obviously this is a very important decision. Whether the system runs on batteries or ...

Non-volatile memory is becoming more complicated at advanced nodes, where price, speed, power and utilization are feeding into some very application-specific tradeoffs about where to place that memory ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. This is the third in a set of four blogs about projections for digital storage and memory for the following year that we have been ...

Most applications that require a microcontroller also require somemechanism to store settings that will be remembered even when power isremoved. For example, a radio that forgets its station presets ...
