Open NAND Flash Interface

Open NAND Flash Interface
An advance approach Open NAND Flash Interface (ONFI) also being getting full on assistance by Intel and micron. The technology driven companies are high in interest for ONFI to build up and beautifying the standards for NAND memory and supporting devices. The group was established in the year of 2006 at Intel’s Developers Forum and started battle to standardize low level interface to NAND based semiconductor devices that are presently running in market.

The major inspiration for this is to develop simple and easy abstraction to change course between chips from various manufacturers. The effort of different manufactures ante up acceleration in development of NAND-based goods and less costly due to tough competition. Sony, SanDisk, Hynix are the prominent manufactures who also leading the ONFI consortium along with Intel and Micron.

The 8GB NAND device lands assistance for ONFI 2.2 interface standard with 200MBPS bandwidth. The joint venture of two technology has been delighted with this appreciative attempt what for they leading in the DRAM world by taking in use of synchronous interfaces to deliver high speed. This might be detracting as SSD manufacturers are sure on high speed data transfer between chips.
