First Flash from ST
STMicroelectronics announced volume production of its 1Gbit and 512Mbit NAND Flash memory, the first in the company’s portfolio of NAND products. The NAND1G and NAND512 are available in both 1.8V and 3V versions. The new ST devices have a block erase time is just 2ms. Each block is specified for 100,000 program and erase cycles, and 10-year data retention.

NAND Flash memories is used in high volume, physically small products requiring large amounts of data-storage such as removable mass-storage devices for digital cameras, MP3 players, personal digital assistants (PDAs) and third generation (3G) cell phones.
