Diablo Technologies was a pioneer in the development of
NVDIMM technologies for high-speed, low-power, and low-latency bridging and switching products targeted at the server and storage markets.
IDT also incorporates a suite of features targeted towards enhancing density and performance of
NVDIMMs. New communication interfaces between the chipset and
NVDIMM controller as well as automated state machines for fast, reliable recovery during catastrophic power loss enable a new generation of fault tolerance and performance acceleration in servers and storage.
Integrated Device Technology Inc (IDT) (Nasdaq:IDTI) announced on Friday that SMART Modular Technologies, a provider of specialty memory solutions, has chosen IDT as a preferred partner for its DDR4
NVDIMM (non-volatile dual in-line memory module) product.
Unlike NAND-based storage which is always accessed as a block device, DRAM-based
NVDIMM is purely byte addressable memory that's absolutely identical to a normal DRAM.
Today's
NVDIMM power products rely on discrete devices comprised of a controller, voltage regulators, diodes and various passive components that must be customized for each individual
NVDIMM design and density.
