Memory technology continues to move along at a healthy pace. Innovations continue to come, and there does not seem to be a slowdown on that horizon. Whether it’s NAND, NOR, or something else, you can expect to see advances in densities, speeds, costs, and so on.

Advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G communications have ushered in an era of unprecedented data generation and traffic. Processors move and crunch data as quickly and efficiently as their architectures allow.

Macronix is a memory vendor who claims to offer “memory-centric computing.” When I heard about this concept, I wondered if it was something real, or just marketing spin.

It’s no secret that the semiconductor industry marches steadily towards more power-efficient solutions.

IoT networks are prone to cyberattacks if not secured effectively. The QuarkLink IoT security management platform secures and enhances Macronix’s ArmorFlash Ecosystem with its most resilient and scalable IoT security approach.

Macronix announced that STMicroelectronics is using its OctaBus flash memory for a wide range of STM32 microcontroller (MCU) platforms.
