Samsung has announced that they’ve developed a 30nm-based 8Gb (gigabit) OneNAND chip for use in smartphones. The new chip is based on single-level-cell (SLC) NAND flash design and allows to phone manufacturers to handle more code data that is used with touchscreen and other high-resolution smartphones.
The 30nm 8Gb OneNAND is 40 percent more efficient than the 40nm-based OneNAND and boasts a read speed of 70MB/s which is more than 4 times faster than conventional NAND with read speeds of up to 17MB/s.
Samsung is currently sampling the memory while the mass production is slated to begin from this month end.
