- 7. Embedded Storage Solutions • Single chip SSD • PCIe NVMe/SATA/PATA • 3D TLC/MLC/SLC modes • 5 ~ 480GB • eMMC 4.5/5.0/5.1 • 100/153-ball BGA package • 2 ~ 512 GB • UFS2.1 Gen3x2 • 153-ball BGA package • 5 ~ 256 GB
- 8. Competitive Advantages • Ultra high IOPS • Fine-tuned towards intended usage • 100% scanning and QC • Rugged and reliable • Industrial Temp • Commercial Temp • AEC-Q100 Grade 3 / 2 • Industrial Temp • Commercial Temp
- 12. Ferri SSD Supports Single Root-IO Virtualization • Cost saving by replacing multiple storage devices (eg. eMMC/UFS) • Improve overall performance to near native direct IO performance • Reduce CPU utilization by eliminating software translation layer (VMM/Hypervisor)
- 14. Full end-to-end data path protection no bit errors sent to host • Full data error detection with recovery engines • Data recovery algorithm can effectively detect any error in the SSD data path, including hardware (i.e. ASIC) errors, firmware errors and memory errors arising in SRAM, DRAM or NAND.
- 15. NANDXtend® ECC technology extending the service life of SSD To combine LDPC hard and soft decoding with RAID protection. • The 1st level : BCH and RS ECC using NAND shift-read-retries. • The 2nd level : LDPC (low-density parity check) code • The 3rd level : Group page RAID algorithm (an efficient redundant backup) to reduce potential dPPM
- 16. Hybrid Zone: ideal blend of cost, reliability and performance To take advantage both of the low latency of SLC cells and the high memory density of TLC cells. • The implementation of SLC memory is ideal for high reliability and fast access— assigning SLC to boot code for instance • To preserve a portion of the NAND medium for higher density MLC/TLC uses.
