Technology suits 65nm processes

Kilopass XPM technology is ideal for standard logic and mixed-signal CMOS design applications requiring embedded nonvolatile memory

Kilopass Technology's XPM technology is now available for 65nm low-power (XPM-65LP) and general purpose (XPM-65G+) processes.

Kilopass XPM technology is the world's first high-density embedded NVM technology verified in silicon and available for design in 65nm standard logic CMOS processes.

Kilopass is also making XPM-65LP and XPM-65G+ evaluation kits available to its customers.

Kilopass XPM technology is ideal for standard logic and mixed-signal CMOS design applications requiring embedded nonvolatile memory since the XPM technology requires no additional mask or process steps.

This makes it fast and simple to integrate using standard design methodologies.

"With the introduction of our XPM technology for 65nm processes, we are able to demonstrate that XPM memory technology is compatible with advanced CMOS geometries", said Craig Rawlings, Director of Marketing.

"Older technologies, like floating gate technologies, run into serious manufacturing challenges at geometries smaller than 130nm".

"Since many of our customers understand these manufacturing hurdles, we are seeing a high demand for our IP, especially from customers designing products on advanced process geometries".

Kilopass' silicon-proven, low-cost and highly secure XPM memory technology offers the benefits of field programmability of NVM implemented in standard-logic CMOS processes, including 180, 130, 90 and 65nm.

Targeted SOC applications include: digital rights management (DRM), high-bandwidth digital content protection (DHCP), encryption keys, electronic security, chip ID, mixed-signal trim and calibration, memory and pixel repair, firmware and parameter storage, and hardware configuration.

Customers with XPM-65LP and/or XPM-65G+ embedded NVM requirements can request a free XPM evaluation kit.
