EON
Non-volatile NOR Flash memories for embedded and industrial electronics
About the manufacturer
Eon Silicon Solution Inc. is a Taiwanese semiconductor memory manufacturer best known for NOR Flash products. The company developed memories for storing program code, firmware and configuration data in electronic equipment.
EON memories were offered with both parallel and serial interfaces, allowing them to be used in legacy embedded architectures as well as compact systems based on serial buses. These devices are designed for non-volatile data storage and repeated programming.
EON products have been used in consumer electronics, communications equipment, industrial devices and control systems. Key selection parameters include density, data organization, interface, supply voltage, access time and compatibility with the existing firmware.
Applications
EON memories are suitable wherever a device needs permanent storage for code or configuration data:
• Embedded systems – program and bootloader storage.
• Industrial electronics – firmware for controllers and communication modules.
• Networking equipment – device software and configuration storage.
• Consumer electronics – program code in digital equipment.
• Measurement instruments – firmware and calibration table storage.
• Service and modernization – replacement memory devices in existing designs.
