The following were the largest NAND flash memory manufacturers, as of the second quarter of 2023. [26] Samsung Electronics – 31.4%; Kioxia – 20.6%; Western Digital Corporation – 12.6%; SK Hynix – 18.5%; Micron Technology – 12.3%
When the system or device needs to read data from or write data to the flash memory, it will communicate with the flash memory controller. Simpler devices like SD cards and USB flash drives typically have a small number of flash memory die connected simultaneously. Operations are limited to the speed of the individual flash memory die.
The Flash Modules were designed from the ground up by Texas Memory Systems using proprietary form-factors, physical connectivity, hard-decision ECC algorithm, and flash translation layer (FTL) contained completely inside the SSD. The flash controllers used a hardware only data path that enabled lower latency than any other commodity controllers ...
As SSD technology continues to improve, they are increasingly used in ultra-mobile PCs and lightweight laptop systems. The first flash-memory SSD based PC to become available was the Sony Vaio UX90, announced for pre-order on 27 June 2006 and began shipping in Japan on 3 July 2006 with a 16 GB flash memory hard drive.

Intel has terminated its Optane line of memory. Sold its NAND flash memory and SSD businesses to SK Hynix. Intel has terminated its Optane line of SSDs. No Sold its NAND flash memory and SSD businesses to SK Hynix, so SK Hynix now makes those controllers. Intel has also terminated its Optane controller business. Kaminario [14] United States No ...
Historically, most SSDs used buses such as SATA, SAS, or Fibre Channel for interfacing with the rest of a computer system. Since SSDs became available in mass markets, SATA has become the most typical way for connecting SSDs in personal computers; however, SATA was designed primarily for interfacing with mechanical hard disk drives (HDDs), and it became increasingly inadequate for SSDs, which ...
Phison SSD controller. Phison Electronics Corporation (Chinese: 群聯電子; pinyin: Qúnlián Diànzǐ) is a Taiwanese public electronics company that primarily designs, manufactures and sells controllers for NAND flash memory chips. [1] These are integrated into flash-based products such as USB flash drives, memory cards, and solid-state ...
A flash memory storage system with no wear leveling will not last very long if data is written to the flash. Without wear leveling, the underlying flash controller must permanently assign the logical addresses from the operating system (OS) to the physical addresses of the flash memory. This means that every write to a previously written block ...
