Semiconductor memories

About the manufacturer

Micron Technology was founded in Boise, Idaho, in 1978 by a four-person semiconductor-design team. It began manufacturing its own DRAM devices in 1981 and introduced an exceptionally compact 256K DRAM chip in 1984. The company grew into a global memory-technology supplier, developing DRAM, NAND and storage solutions. Its history is closely associated with semiconductor miniaturisation, increasing data density and the evolution of computing infrastructure.

The main technical solutions associated with MICRON include DRAM and DDR memory devices, NAND Flash memory and NOR Flash memory. Semiconductor memories store code and data in computers, embedded products and network infrastructure. DRAM and non-volatile NAND and NOR Flash architectures serve different tasks and have different controller requirements. Data integrity, performance and long-term availability are also important.

Applications

MICRON solutions are relevant to applications where component characteristics must be matched to the final equipment:

• computer memory
• embedded systems
• solid-state drives
• network devices
• industrial automation
• data centers
