Multi-programmable non-volatile memory on standard 40-nm CMOSThe Eyes Have it : A Mixed-signal IP Blog - Navraj Nandra, SynopsysApr. 18, 2013 |
A wide range of wireless SoCs supporting near field communication (NFC), Bluetooth, 802.11, and other radio applications can reduce both system power and cost by integrating multiple time programmable (MTP) non-volatile memory (NVM) on-chip. The MTP NVM can be used for field updatable lookup tables (for routing NFC packets), device matching (in the case of Bluetooth), customer settings (i.e., volume or radio pre-sets), or general configuration and calibration data.
While embedded MTP has been easily scalable from 350-nm to 65-nm, developing embedded MTP NVM in a standard CMOS process is becoming more difficult as the technology moves to more advanced nodes.
