Because contactless ICs source far less power from electromagnetic carrier waves, power consumption is undoubtedly a key concern for embedded nonvolatile memory. EcoBit boasts a first-class design for operating current management and can carry out on-chip or in-system writing with a low power consumption that is measured in micro-Watts (uW).

cIn addition to low power consumption, design flexibility is enhanced by enabling EcoBit IP to work across a wide voltage domain in order to achieve low operation voltage for both read and write operations. As always with eMemory’s logic NVM solutions, EcoBit technology is implemented in logic compatible process with no additional mask or process changes, thus lowering adoption barriers for IC design teams.

eMemory’s EcoBit IP—supporting a specification on array-density up to 4K bits, operating power in the uW-range and 10K-times electrical P/E-cycling endurance—has been verified in 0.11um logic and low-power process platforms.
