Embedded non-volatile memory (eNVM) silicon IP developer eMemory Technology has announced its One Time Programmable (OTP) technology, NeoBit, has completed silicon IP verification on the 55nm high-voltage process of Shanghai Huali Microelectronics (HLMC).
The OTP technology that HLMC and eMemory have developed is to meet demand for smartphones and tablets with high-definition screens, according to the companies.
"eMemory's NeoBit OTP offers its excellent application value in HLMC's 55nm high-voltage process, not only providing display parameter settings storage for high resolution display driver ICs to aid in adjusting moving image color, but also improving image sharpness and making images clearer. These unparalleled features make NeoBit OTP a powerful tool for the next-generation handheld devices to achieve high image quality and high resolution display," eMemory said in a statement.
eMemory's OTP technology based on the 55nm high-voltage platform of HLMC has already passed verification, and is slated for customer product design-in starting in the second half of 2012, the companies said.
Founded in January 2010, HLMC is a joint foundry venture of the China government. Huali in 2011 ramped its 12-inch wafer fab, and directly entered 65nm/55nm production.
