Leti to assist Weebit Nano to move its RRAM to 300 mm wafers and 28 nm technologies

Israel-based RRAM developer Weebit Nano announced that its partnership with Leti continues, and Leti and Weebit extended the partnership to include adapting Weebit's RRAM production process to 300 mm wafers, at 28 nm.

Weebit believes that the move to 300 mm and 28 nm will be quick - and it will be done by the end of Q4 2019. The move to 28 nm will improve Weebit's RRAM cells and enable them to fit even the smallest geometries being used in the market today.

Weebit Nano to partner with the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi on a Neuromorphic RRAM project

Israel-based SiOx RRAM developer Weebit Nano announced that it will partner with the Non-Volatile Memory Research Group of the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IITD) to work jointly on a Neuromorphic RRAM project.

Weebit Nano produced a 1Mb RRAM array at 40 nm

Weebit Nano logoIsrael-based SiOx RRAM developer Weebit Nano announced that it produced a 1Mb array of its silicon-oxide ReRAM at 40nm. The 1Mb initial tests, conducted in CEA/Leti facilities in Grenoble, France, demonstrated the capability of addressing and programming nearly all of the memory cells.

Last month Weebit and Leti extended their co-development agreement. In November 2017 we posted an interview with Weebit's new CEO, which explains the company's technolgoy and business.

Weebit Nano and Leti extend their RRAM co-development agreement

Israel-based SiOx RRAM developer Weebit Nano announced that it has extended its agreement with Leti to further develop and optimize Weebit’s ReRAM memory technology. Weebit says that this extension will allow it to accelerate the optimizing of the manufacturing process required to achieve industry standard capabilities with its Silicon Oxide (SiOx) ReRAM memory technology.

Weebit and Leti aim to demonstrate a 40nm 1Mb memory array by mid-2018. Weebit and Leti also plan to initiate work on 28nm nodes later this year. In November 2017 we posted an interview with Weebit's new CEO, which explains the company's technology and business.

Weebit announced working 40nm SiOx RRAM cell samples

Earlier this year, Weebit Nano announced that it aims to produce 40nm working SiOx RRAM cell samples by the end of 2017, and the company today announced that it achieved that milestone - one month ahead of schedule.

Weebit further reports that measurements performed on the 40nm memory cells on various wafers verified the ability of Weebit Nano SiOx ReRAM cells to maintain its memory behaviour in accordance with previous experiments performed on 300nm cells.

Weebit successfully demonstrated the reliability and endurance of its 300 nm 4Kb RRAM memory cells

Israel-based SiOx RRAM developer Weebit Nano recently announced success in demonstrating a 4Kbit array in 300nm. Weebit now updates that it has successfully demonstrated the reliability of data retention and endurance in its 300 nm 4Kb memory cells. data retention lifetime extrapolation demonstrated the ability to maintain written data for 10 years at above room temperature. In addition the chips maintained their data after 30 minutes at 260 degrees, exceeding the soldering requirements of 15 minutes at that temperatures.
