Abstract

Memory today consists of two giants: DRAM and NAND flash, and a broad range of lesser alternatives all vying for the designer’s attention, including established technologies like SRAM, NOR flash, and EEPROM as well as emerging technologies like MRAM, ReRAM, PCM, and FRAM. The newer technologies are all hoping that their superior performance and scalability will allow them to steal market share from the leading technologies. Meanwhile CXL and UCIe are poised to completely change the rules by which the memory game is played. This presentation will review all of these technologies to show how they interact and to draw some surprising conclusions about the likely outcomes of these changes, leading into what SNIA members and others must do to keep their edge during this important era of change.
