Micron Introduces 34nm NAND Flash Products
Micron today introduced new 34nm NAND products, including mass production of a 16Gb chip and a newly architected 32Gb chip. Also as part of the announcement, Lexar will introduce two new products leveraging Microns new 34nm NAND die including a 16GB microSDHC and a 32GB SDHC flash card. The new Lexar Platinum II 32GB Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) memory card that uses 34nm NAND Flash is pictured below.
Microns new 16- and 32-gigabit (Gb) NAND chips pair large capacity with performance, providing a compelling solution for todays demanding portable storage requirements that are tailored to end-customer product dimensions. The newly architected 32Gb multi-level cell (MLC) NAND chip is 17 percent smaller than Microns first-generation 32Gb chip. The 16Gb MLC NAND chip, at just 84mm, provides high-capacity in an ultra tiny package. Micron is also now sampling 8- and 16Gb single-level cell (SLC) NAND chips using the 34nm process. Additionally, Lexar Media, Inc. a subsidiary of Micron and a leading provider of consumer memory products for digital devices is taking advantage of Microns new 34nm NAND products by delivering a wide range of flash memory cards and USB flash drives utilizing this technology.
