-- Availability in 32 bit to 8k bit configurations for maximum design flexibility -- 15k write-cycle endurance for frequent in-field updating or reprogramming -- 10-year data retention for long product life -- -40 to +125°C operating temperature for high demand industrial applications"The availability of AEON/MTP in 65 nm processes dispels a long-held industry misconception that floating gates manufactured in 2.5V processes do not retain charge," said Larry Morrell, vice president and general manager of IP Products at Impinj. "AEON/MTP NVM with 2.5V floating gate transistors has been put through rigorous testing and its reliability and performance have been proven." Impinj's AEON/MTP cores in TSMC's 65 nm process are available in November to qualified customers with broad availability in the first quarter of 2008. Development of AEON/MTP cores in TSMC's 45 nm process is underway with planned availability in late 2008.
