This excerpt offers an in-depth review and discussion on the options available to designers for creating a memory architecture best suited to their particular embedded system application. Adapted from ...

The simplest systems just need a few additional components, including external memory, to provide unique functions (Fig. 1). These types of products/systems require memory but not a lot of it.

KIOXIA Europe has begun sampling new Universal Flash Storage (UFS) Ver. 4.1 embedded memory devices designed for automotive applications. Engineered to satisfy the rigorous demands of next-generation ...

Driven by these applications, embedded memory will account for about 70 percent of SoC content by 2005, according to Dataquest. As embedded memory's role expands in highly competitive markets, however ...

Memory layout variations are often cited as a threat to the reproducibility of computer performance experiments. Previous research has shown worst-case effects as large as 300% of execution time, ...
