Code storage in embedded systems
NOR flash is the ideal memory for code storage in embedded systems due to its fast random-read performance. This performance also supports Execute in Place (XiP) functionality which allows host controllers to execute code directly from the NOR flash memory without needing to first copy the code to a RAM. Higher levels of serial NOR memory performance have enabled Execute in Place (XiP) to be used in a wide variety of designs in many applications.
Widest range of AEC-Q100-qualified memories
Infineon offers the widest range of AEC-Q100-qualified serial NOR flash memory with support for temperatures up to +125°C. PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) support is available for automotive customers. Infineon complements all its products with world class quality and support.
