XPM technology's scalability makes it possible for Kilopass to quickly support new process technologies for low-power high-volume consumer products.
"Our ability to quickly port XPM memory technology to a new process technology with higher performance, larger storage capacities, and smaller footprints gives us an edge in the competitive, consumer-oriented market and highlights the high-density process scalability of our XPM technology", says Craig Rawlings, Director of Marketing, Kilopass Technology.
The 80GC process is an 80nm "half-node" process that sits between the 90 and 65nm nodes.
The XPM-80GC underlying CMOS process provides higher performance for general purpose applications, and the XPM-90LP underlying CMOS process provides both low active and standby power for handheld and mobile applications.
Target applications for the 80 and 90nm processes include general purpose consumer as well and mobile and wireless applications.
By passing Kilopass' rigorous foundry partner certification criteria, customers are able to review credible evidence, validating that XPM is a proper fit for high volume manufacturing applications and product applications requiring proven reliability.
