SanDisk develops memory for smartphones that realizes recording capacity of up to 64 GB

Although the opportunities to handle large-capacity contents on smartphones are increasing rapidly due to the installation of high-quality cameras, music and video playback functions, and business software, SanDisk has built-in flash memory that realizes recording capacity of up to 64 GB for smartphones Has been developed.

Considering that there is a limit to the increase of recording capacity using a microSDHC card etc., it may be glad for the user who loaded a large capacity flash memory from the beginning.

Details are as below.
SANDISK DOUBLES STORAGE CAPACITY FOR MOBILE PHONES AND PORTABLE DEVICES WITH INTRODUCTION OF 64GB iNAND EMBEDDED FLASH DRIVES

According to SanDisk release, it seems that we have developed a new model that realizes a maximum storage capacity of 64 GB as the latest model of "iNAND" embedded flash memory for smartphones.

"INAND" of the latest model adopts "X 3 technology" which records 3 bit data in one cell and 32 nm (nanometer) manufacturing process, and the size is 64 × 16 G × 20 × 1.4 mm It has become. The products that adopted the X3 technology have already been widely sold through OEM manufacturers and retailers, and they are getting high reliability.

Also, since "iNAND" also functions as a boot (boot) device of a smartphone, it becomes unnecessary to separately need a boot device, so it will be possible to simplify the smartphone design, It is said that cost and power consumption can be reduced.

Last December 15thToshiba developed a 64 GB built-in NAND type flash memory for mobile phonesIn early this month, Intel and Micron Technology can increase the capacity of portable music players, media players, smart phones, SSDs etc. with higher cost performance than before,NAND flash memory adopting the world's first 25 nm manufacturing process was announcedHowever, if triad price competition occurs by the appearance of a competing horse called San Disk, it can be expected that a reasonable and large capacity smartphone will appear.
