RRAM developer CrossBar announced (in July 2021) a new application of its RRAM technology for use as a physical unclonable function (PUF) in order to generate cryptographic keys in secure computing applications.

CrossBar's RRAM has been historically utilized as non-volatile semiconductor memory, but it is now being introduced for use in hardware security. The company says its solution can enable a more secure and cost-effective class of devices and systems.

Israel-based RRAM developer Weebit Nano has entered into its first commercial deal with US-based semiconductor foundry SkyWater Technologies. The deal includes a technology transfer agreement and a non-exclusive licensing agreement.

Weebit's ReRAM technology will be transferred to SkyWater’s production fab and then qualified for volume production by the end of 2022.
