GigaDevice Introduces 1.2V SPI NOR Flash Product to Meet Advanced SoCs' Need for ultra-Low Power and High Performance

　　GD25UF's 1.2V capability enables a direct interface to SoCs and processors produced on advanced process nodes, reducing their die size and simplifying their power supply architecture

　　Nuremberg, Germany – 14 March 2023 – GigaDevice, a semiconductor industry leader in Flash memory and 32-bit microcontrollers serving a broad range of technology innovations, today introduced the GD25UF series of SPI NOR Flash in its strategic roadmap of 1.2V Flash products supporting systems-on-chip (SoCs) and applications processors built on advanced process nodes. The GD25UF SPI NOR Flash products are optimized for applications that require ultra-low power consumption or a small board footprint.

　　The GD25UF products operate at a supply-voltage range of 1.14V-1.26V .This is ideal for devices built on advanced process nodes and operating at a core voltage of 1.2V, as it provides for a simpler power system architecture, and for direct interfacing between the I/O pins of the SoC or processor and the GD25UF device.

　　With the GD25UF products, GigaDevice provides better specifications than other competing 1.2V products in the parameters that manufacturers of mobile communications devices, wireless modems and wearable devices care most about. In low-power mode at a frequency of up to 50MHz, Active Read current can be as low as 0.4mA at slower frequencies. Deep power-down current of 0.1µA makes the GD25UF ideal for any battery-powered or wearable application. In addition, industry-best program and erase times help increase device manufacturing throughput while reducing system power consumption.

　　In Fast Read mode, these Flash devices operate at up to 120MHz and achieve a data-transfer rate of up to 640Mbits/s. In low EMI mode, operating at 80MHz over a double transfer-rate (DTR) quad I/O interface, the GD25UF products achieve the same data-transfer rate of 640Mbits/s while minimizing clock-generated noise, an ideal feature for noise-sensitive wireless applications.

　　The 64Mbit GD25UF64E is in production now. It is supplied in SOP8, 3mm x 4mm or 4mm x 4mm USON8 and WLCSP packages, or as a known good die. The 128Mbit GD25UF128E is sampling. Products with memory capacity of 32Mbits and 256Mbits are in development.

　　Syed S. Hussain, Flash BU Global Segment Marketing of GigaDevice said: 'Users of chips manufactured at advanced process nodes require a new generation of low-voltage Flash memory products that are optimized for the demanding applications that they support, such as IoT devices, mobile phones, PCs and laptops, and consumer devices, e.g. portable healthcare, smart watch and battery-based devices. Today’s launch of the GD25UF64E 1.2V Flash product marks the start of a comprehensive roadmap of low-voltage Flash products from GigaDevice, providing OEMs with the mix of memory capacities, serial interfaces and security functions that they need for the next generation of system designs. There is a Megatrend, where one shrinks SoCs down to lowest process geometry a must requirement is peripherals needs to support 1.2VIO also. GigaDevice is uniquely positioned to win Ultra-low power and performance megatrend in new designs.'

GigaDevice's GD5F1GM9 Series High-Speed QSPI NAND Flash Sets New Benchmark with Breakthrough Read Speeds for Accelerated Application Startup

　　GigaDevice, a leading semiconductor company specializing in Flash Memory, 32-bit Microcontrollers (MCUs), Sensors, Analog products and solutions, announces the launch of its GD5F1GM9 high-speed QSPI NAND Flash, which features breakthrough read speeds and innovative Bad Block Management (BBM) functionality.　　The GD5F1GM9 series combines the high-speed read performance of NOR Flash with the large capacity and cost-effectiveness of NAND Flash. These innovations address key industry challenges of slow response times and vulnerability to bad block interference associated with traditional SPI NAND Flash. The GD51GM9 launch will open new growth opportunities for SPI NAND Flash, making it the ideal choice for fast-boot applications in sectors such as security, industrial, and IoT.　　The GD5F1GM9 series high-speed QSPI NAND Flash is built on a 24nm process node. The series supports both 3V and 1.8V operating voltages as well as high-speed read modes including Continuous Read, Cache Read, and Auto Load Next Page. Continuous Read and Auto Load Next Page modes are newer read features added on this series, offering users versatile read options to further accelerate code and data fetch. These read modes utilize the new parallel computation approach for its ECC (Error Correction Code) design, replacing the previous serial computation method. This innovation significantly reduces the calculation time for the built-in ECC.　　The 3V version of the series achieves a continuous read rate of up to 83MB/s in Continuous Read mode, operating at a maximum clock frequency of 166MHz. The 1.8V version has a continuous read rate of up to 66MB/s and supports a maximum clock frequency of 133MHz. The results in GD5F1GM9’s read speeds are up to 3 times faster than traditional SPI NAND products at the same frequency. These design advantages improve data access throughput, reduce system boot time, and lower overall system power consumption.　　As bad blocks from the factory are inherent issues in NAND Flash, the GD5F1GM9 incorporates an on-chip Advanced Bad Block Management (BBM) to ensure comprehensive functionality of Continuous Read mode. Continuous Read allows read access of the full memory array with a single Read command in aid of the executed BBM that link bad block addresses to good block addresses. Read access will then automatically skip the bad block due to the established link access to the remap and linked good physical block address.　　From the factory, the GD5F1GM9 series guarantees the first 256 blocks are good blocks. While there will be bad blocks from the factory and possible new bad blocks may arise during usage that needs to be managed, the BBM feature can create a logical block address to the physical block address link, allowing users to swap and replace bad blocks and the associated access will be on a good block once the BBM link is setup.　　The device can support up to 20 Look Up Table BBM Links to further compliment Continuous Read mode functionality. This not only significantly improves resource utilization but also simplifies system design.　　“Currently, the generally slow read speed of SPI NAND Flash has become a major bottleneck in enhancing boot performance of key applications,” said Ruwei Su, GigaDevice vice president and general manager of Flash BU, "The launch of GD5F1GM9 series high-speed QSPI NAND Flash sets a new performance benchmark in the market. This series effectively addresses the read speed limitations of traditional SPI NAND Flash and offers a new solution for bad block management, making it an ideal alternative for NOR Flash users with growing capacity needs. In the future, GigaDevice will continue to refine its underlying technologies to provide customers with more efficient and reliable storage solutions."　　The GD5F1GM9 series offers 1Gb capacity with 3V/1.8V voltage options and supports WSON8 8x6mm, WSON8 6x5mm, and BGA24 (5×5 ball array) 5x5 ball package options.

It achieves high-speed clock frequencies of up to 133 MHz in STR mode and 104 MHz in DTR mode.　　With a typical page program time of 0.15ms and sector erase time of 30ms, the GD25NE series significantly outperforms conventional 1.2 V-only Flash solutions—offering up to 20% faster read performance, over 60% faster program speed, and 30% reduction in erase time. Due to these advances, it makes the GD25NE series an outstanding choice for emerging embedded applications.　　The GD25NE series is engineered with ultra-low power consumption by design, making it ideal for energy-sensitive applications. It features a typical deep power-down current of just 0.2 µA, a Quad I/O DTR read current of 9mA at 104 MHz, and program/erase currents as low as 8 mA. Compared to conventional 1.8 V solutions, the 1.2 V design reduces power consumption by up to 50%. This optimized power architecture not only enhances power efficiency but also simplifies system design while maintaining higher performance.　　“The GD25NE series represents a new class of dual-supply SPI NOR Flash, delivering an optimal balance of high performance and ultra-low power consumption," said Ruwei Su, GigaDevice vice president and general manager of Flash BU, "With significantly reduced power usage, faster read speeds, and enhanced program/erase efficiency, this solution is designed to meet the evolving demands of next-generation 1.2 V SoCs.
