KIOXIA America, formerly Toshiba Memory America, announced that it has begun sampling its 512 gigabyte (GB) Automotive Universal Flash Storage (UFS) JEDEC Version 2.1 embedded memory solution.
KIOXIA America’s Automotive UFS supports a wide temperature range (-40°C to +105°C), meets AEC-Q100 Grade24 requirements, and offers the extended reliability required by various automotive applications. The 512GB device joins the company’s existing lineup of automotive UFS, which includes capacities of 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, 128GB and 256GB.
To meet this demand for large-capacity memory, KIOXIA’s new 512GB Automotive UFS memory was developed, which integrates the company’s BiCS FLASH 3D flash memory and a controller in a single package. 512GB Automotive UFS features several functions ideal to the requirements of automotive applications including Refresh, Thermal Control and Extended Diagnosis.
The Refresh function can be used to refresh data stored in UFS and helps extend the data’s lifespan. The Thermal Control function protects the device from overheating in the high-temperature circumstances that can occur in automotive applications. Lastly, the Extended Diagnosis function helps the host processor understand the device’s status.
Innovations such as autonomous vehicles, more advanced infotainment systems, digital clusters, telematics, and ADAS provide not only an elevated driver experience but also a greater demand for storage within vehicles.
