SAN DIEGO, Jan. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- AgigA Tech,
Inc., a leading provider of high-speed, high-density, battery-free
nonvolatile memory solutions and a subsidiary of Cypress
Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ: CY), today announced the production
release of its AGIGARAM® family of JEDEC-compliant DDR4
NVDIMM-N solutions. The solutions join AgigA's market-leading,
pre-JEDEC (or "Legacy") DDR4 NVDIMM products already in volume
production to provide a broad portfolio of full turnkey module
products and controller solutions that adhere to the recent
publicly released JEDEC standards around NVDIMM-N solutions
(JESD248 and JESD245A).
AgigA has 8GB and 16GB NVDIMM-N module solutions available
today, with 32GB under development and slated for release later
this year. AgigA also offers controller chipset solutions for OEM
partners to develop their own branded NVDIMM-N products. The
AGIGARAM family of chipsets are highly programmable, enabling them
to support multiple NVDIMM-N requirements, including designs with
or without data multiplexors, as well as NAND Flash solutions from
various memory vendors. Additionally, AgigA provides a full line of
PowerGEM® modules, the industry's most reliable
battery-free energy solutions that provide power during data
backup, supporting both AgigA and OEM NVDIMMs.
"AgigA Tech was the first to sample a DDR4 NVDIMM over two years
ago, and we have since focused on perfecting and expanding our
offerings while working with our key OEM partners," said
Ron Sartore, president and CEO of
AgigA Tech. "With the recent release of the JEDEC NVDIMM-N
standards, this market is poised for significant growth in the
coming years, with multiple market reports forecasting well over
$1 billion by 2020."
The NVDIMM-N standard defined by JEDEC offers a new class of
nonvolatile memory developed to meet the need for
higher-performance persistent memory for enterprise-class storage
and server applications, providing the low latency and nearly
infinite endurance of DRAM, along with the non-volatility of Flash.
Enterprise and data center applications were previously constrained
by the higher latency of existing storage solutions such as SSDs,
but they are now able to remove a significant system bottleneck
with the deployment of NVDIMM-N solutions in their storage
hierarchy. With the recent introduction of the JEDEC
specifications, NVDIMM-N hardware and software integration just
became much easier.
AgigA Tech Demonstration Sponsor at the 2017 Persistent
Memory Summit
AgigA Tech will be showcasing its latest NVDIMM-N solutions as a
Demonstration Sponsor at the 2017 Persistent Memory Summit to be
held at the Westin San Jose hotel on January
18, 2017. Jeff Chang, AgigA's
Vice President of Marketing and Business Development and the
Co-Chair of the NVDIMM Special Interest Group, will be hosting a
panel discussion at the summit entitled "Persistent Memory Adoption
in Operating Systems" focusing on NVDIMM enablement within the OS
ecosystem. Additional summit details can be found at
