Objective
The main objective of the project is to deliver a full featured 1.8GHz GSM phone incorporating a prototype of the integrated embedded applications specific memory system developed in the project. The prototype phone will be tested with the Nokia standard validation procedure which includes, amongst others, durability testing at high and low temperatures;
The application specific memory will be initially manufactured in 0.6 um technology and be shrinkable to 0.5 um.
The successful completion of the project will provide the opportunity for SGS-Thomson customers to have developed application specific memories combining customisable quantities of flash and EEPROM function for use in a very broad range of market sectors.
The aim of the project is the development of an application specific memory integrating flash and EEPROM functions on the same chip for use, amongst others, in cellular phone applications. This innovative semiconductor device will be developed by the semiconductor company, SGS-Thomson, to the specifications determined by cellular phone manufacturer Nokia who will include the device in a phone demonstrator. Characterisation and process reliability studies will be undertaken at the IMEL research institute.
A new non-volatile memory cell concept will be developed in order to integrate both flash and EEPROM memory structures on the same chip without any increase in manufacturing complexity.
