Choosing the optimal storage solution for system integrators can be very challenging. Although 3D TLC has sufficient storage capacity, it cannot provide the demanded performance and durability. Meanwhile, the cost of SLC may outweigh its disadvantages. Therefore, iSLC technology was developed for the demands between high-end/critical SLC and the low-end
3D TLC markets.
iSLC technology is a flash memory solution for improving the performance, reliability, and durability of 3D TLC NAND flash. Through screening and programming the SSD firmware, the capability of the cells can be enhanced, allowing 3D TLC NAND flash to emulate SLC NAND.
The primary purpose of this white paper is to explain the differences among the NAND mentioned above Flash technologies and how iSLC has become a solution with broader applications for embedded and advanced products markets.
