Abstract

The embedded Nonvolatile Memories (eNVM) technologies offer in-system re-programmability along with low voltage (LV), low power (LP), noise reduction, more reliable, and reduced system cost while maintain high speed, high density system performance over other NVM that including stand-alone Flash memory. The extent of market opportunity is driven by product cost. Manufacturability is the primary concern, rather than mere cell-size scalability. The design simplicity with integration compatibility of the logic core process to the additional NVM flow is a key factor when choosing memory cell. In this paper we will review different NVM concepts including cell design, from ROM to Flash, and to non-Si based memories and their applications in support of the diverse and emerging consumer market.
