The new silicon oxide nanocrystal memory isn't the only memory technology that could unseat NAND flash. Something called phase change memory (PCM) is shipping today. PCM offers some key advantages ...

Phase-change memory (PCM) is a term used to describe a class of nonvolatile memory devices that exploit the ability of certain materials to rapidly change phase between two stable physical states.

The days of RAM might be numbered. Scientists at IBM Research have, for the first time, demonstrated the ability to reliably store three bits of data per cell, using a new memory technology known as ...

As PCM makers have had difficult in increasing the density of the arrays, it should be easier to replace serial EEPROM in systems than bulk flash. However, a small number of mobile phones have shipped ...
