A Guide to NAND Flash: Maximizing Speed and Lifespan

NAND Flash is a type of non-volatile storage technology that is widely used in electronic devices such as USB drives, memory cards, and solid-state drives (SSDs). It has become increasingly popular over recent years for its fast read and write speeds, low power consumption, and durability. In this article, we'll take a brief look at the history of NAND Flash, explore the different types of NAND Flash, including SLC, MLC, TLC, and QLC, and introduce Cervoz's vast Flash offerings. Temperature DRAM? The first NAND Flash technology was developed in the late 1980s in Japan, and was named after the NAND gate, a type of digital logic gate. The technology was first used as a replacement for traditional EPROM and EEPROM memory, which required a special device to erase and rewrite data. NAND Flash differed because it could be easily rewritten and erased in blocks, rather than individually like with EPROM and EEPROM. This made it much faster and more efficient to use, and was the reason for its mass adoption over the following thirty years. The Different Types of NAND Flash There are several different types of NAND Flash, each with their own unique characteristics: Single-Level Cell (SLC) NAND Flash stores one bit of data on each cell is the highest-performing type of NAND Flash available right now. SLC Flash has fast read and write speeds and a long lifespan, but it has a relatively low storage density compared to other types of NAND Flash, which makes using it quite expensive, especially for integrators with large storage needs. Multi-Level Cell (MLC) NAND Flash stores two bits of data on each cell. Compared to SLC, it is slower, has a shorter lifespan, is less expensive and has more storage density. Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND Flash stores three bits on each cell, and subsequently has even slower read and write speeds than SLC and MLC. However, due to its large data density, it is affordable and therefore commonly used in consumer devices such as USB thumb drives and memory cards. Quad-Level Cell (QLC) NAND Flash stores four bits on each cell, unlike other types of Flash memory which store one, two or three bits per cell. It is designed to be even less expensive than Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND Flash, but it also has slower performance and a shorter lifespan. ▪ SLC (single level cell) stores 1 bit per cell ▪ MLC (multiple level cell) stores 2 bits per cell ▪ TLC (triple level cell) stores 3 bits per cell ▪ QLC (quadruple level cell) stores 4 bits per cell How to Pick the Right NAND Flash for Your Application When choosing the right NAND Flash for your application, you'll want to consider several factors. These include the required read and write speeds, the lifespan of the device, how much storage you need, and your budget. If speed and durability are most important to you, consider SLC NAND Flash; if cost is a major concern, TLC or QLC NAND Flash may be a better option. Cervoz's Flash Offerings Cervoz Industrial SSDs, featuring SATA interfaces and conforming to SATA III standards, are available in four series:, Titan (TLC), Momentum (MLC), Reliance (RO-MLC) and Supreme (SLC). Built to industrial grade specs, these SSDs employ the fixed BOM principle and long life-cycle management.

HMI Drives Increased Connectivity Across Various Applications

What is HMI? HMI stands for human-machine interface and is regarded as a user interface (UI) or a dashboard that connects to a machine, equipment, or system. To be more specific, not to be confused with a user interface (UI) and dashboard, HMIs focus more on industrial automation applications. However, this does not mean you will not use HMI for other purposes. Common Applications for Human Machine Interface Here are the common applications for HMIs: Equipment and Machinery Monitoring The most frequently used field is factories. In a modern factory operation, the highly functional HMI is an essential part. They are required to execute and manage complex processes effectively, and functionality is far beyond your imagination. Meanwhile, AI powers the new generation of HMI to enable more functionalities for more critical and daily operations. Building/ Home Automation HMIs are also used in building/home automation to simplify the processes while providing homeowners with a convenient control interface. It involves connecting multiple indoor systems and controlling them from a single interface, such as lighting control, HVAC(Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning) control, and access control. Automotive Dashboards As we are all quite familiar, a common in-car HMI may consist of a touchscreen interface for the driver or passenger to control systems like heating, air conditioning, navigation, radio, and more. As autonomous driving technology becomes more popular, it is possible to see that self-driving vehicles would have no steering wheels but giant touchscreens with digital information in the cockpit. Next-Generation HMI HMI technology is used in almost every industry, including manufacturing, automotive, entertainment, and medical applications. HMI in industrial applications is the primary interface for factory operators to control manufacturing processes or machines. Modern industrial HMIs range from simple handheld interfaces, replacing pushbuttons and switches, to the complex operator interface for SCADA. Hence, HMIs have become widely used and developed into more compact sizes to fit space-constrained systems, and even mobility is considered. As we move toward the automation world, coupling edge computing and AI features, modern HMI is changing how humans interact with machines. For example, controlling machines with advanced 3D hand gesture recognition are not only an innovative interface of HMI, but also a touch-free and hygienic operation of the display. In the following articles, Cervoz will show an in-depth analysis about the future trends and challenges of HMI and how Cervoz's solution can overcome the obstacles of HMI deployment. Stay tuned!

Automated Optical Inspection

Cervoz Storage Solution Delivers Incredible Agility with Infinite When a traditional factory is transferred to a smart factory, more devices will be adopted to improve production performance. The vision machine system no doubt is one of the important devices and the Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) is the eye of the quality control first step. AOI integrates with optics, mechanics, electronic control, and software to replace the human eye and the camera will autonomously scan the device under test for both catastrophic failure and quality defects. Challenges and Requirements Quality inspection is a critical step in the whole production flow. Traditionally, quality inspection was ensured by manual visual inspection (MVI), using humans to detect defects. Today, in the era of post-pandemic coupled with the development of industrial automation, factories reorganize their workforce to ensure the best utilization. Obviously, more and more workers will be replaced by machines, especially in labor-intensive industries. For example, factories use machine vision to replace human vision, artificial intelligence instead of the human brain. This replacement has accelerated the practice of AIOT. When cameras capture images during the inspection process, these images need to be transmitted to AOI systems with stability. What we so-called “stability” means all the data can transmit at high speed without losing any images, no any form of image distortion, and no transmission interference. Furthermore, AOI systems need to operate 24/7 and maintain the same quality output in different environments, then the inspection capability will be maximized. What can Cervoz offer? Optimized Stability and Performance Solution in 24/7 Factory To fulfill the stabilized transmission, including processing huge amounts of small images, Cervoz offers an industrial Optimized Endurance Flash solution that meets the requirement of writing large amounts of small-sized data into SSD quickly and accurately. A DRAM build-in designed flash module provides a temporary storage area for data and the chip acts as a directory that assists in allocating the data to the assigned positions that could improve performance by shortening data transmitted response time, simultaneously, increasing endurance by reducing P/E cycle erase times. Overcome Extreme Environment Service Cervoz provides a Conformal Coating service for all DRAM and flash modules, allowing them to be protected by the thin protective film against moisture, dust, chemicals, e.g., in food processing factories where using AOI for grading and inspection in the humid and cold working environment.

Overheating Solutions

Cervoz tackles overheating with comprehensive set of solutions Overheating is a problem that any machine or device powered by electricity can face. When a storage module overheats, it may start to malfunction. If overheating continues, it could cause the module to crash and threaten data integrity. Ultimately, the problem could reduce the device's expected lifespan and render it useless and in need of replacing. As a leader in designing and developing Flash storage, Cervoz has engineered solutions to overheating to go along with its modules. Here are our three main solutions for thermal management and overheating protection. Dynamic Thermal Throttling On the firmware front, Cervoz offers a feature known as Dynamic Thermal Throttling for its Flash products. This mechanism prevents the module from overheating due to large volumes of data write-in in a short period of time. In cases when themodule heats up to a temperature cap, the function automatically slows down performance and thus drops temperature before the module overheats. This feature will induce cooling until the device returns to a stable temperature. Once the temperature has decreased to a previously determined acceptable level, transfer speed will return to its optimum level. M.2 PCIe Heat Dissipation Solution On the hardware front, Cervoz provides two heat dissipation solutions for its M.2 PCIe modules. Since these modules are known for their fast data-processing capabilities, they are most prone to overheating. For the standard temperature M.2 module, we offer a graphene padding that is sufficient for heat dissipation in a typical room-temperature setting. Meanwhile, for the wide temperature M.2 module, the Cervoz heatsink kit is designed to effectively help with heat dissipation under extreme temperatures (-40˚C to 85˚C). The unique fin design has been proven to accelerate heat dissipation and thus maintain stable data transfer. Our tests on the Cervoz heatsink found that it can reduce operating temperatures by up to 15˚C compared to that of devices operating without it. Cervoz FlashMonitor On the software front, Cervoz presents the proprietary Cervoz FlashMonitor, free to download with the purchase of any of our storage products. The monitoring system shows in real time how Cervoz storage modules are doing, with temperature being one of the data it tracks. In the “Tool” tab, users can set up the system to send email and pop-up alerts when the module's temperature reaches a pre-set threshold. This automatic, real-time alert keeps users informed of how the device is doing and whether it needs to be powered off to cool down. For any additional information on these solutions, contact our Cervoz Sales Rep now!
