Recent analysis by Google has shown DRAM errors to be orders of magnitude higher than reported by manufacturers. Based on analysis of server usage and failure rates, it was determined that ~8% of all DIMM are affected by errors each year. The reason for the memory failures is that OEMs, test houses and chip [...]
Researchers at the LIRMM in France have developed an FPGA cell based on MRAM technologies. Space FPGAs use FPGAs based on either SRAM cells or antifuse cells. The use of MRAM technology mixed into an FPGA architecture has the potential to reduce power savings in standby mode and reduce configuration time.
The idea to [...]
Rad hard nonvolatile memory in the form a 2 and 4Mb CRAM is coming closer and closer to reality. BAE Systems currently shows the devices on their web site. 514 is investigating these memories from both a reliability as well as radiation performance point of view.
