performance and an improved user experience from
their devices, and the UFS standard is constantly being
refined in order to support this evolution. Due to its serial
interface, UFS supports full duplexing, which enables
both concurrent reading and writing between the host
processor and UFS device. With the introduction of
UFS 3.0, JEDEC, the global leader in the development
of standards for the microelectronics industry, has
enhanced previous versions of the UFS standard to help
product designers enable significant improvements in
mobile devices and related applications.
The new devices integrate 96-layer BiCS FLASH™ 3D
flash memory and a controller in a JEDEC-standard
11.5 x 13mm package. The controller performs error
correction, wear leveling, logical-to-physical address
translation, and bad-block management for simplified
system development.
All three devices are compliant with JEDEC UFS Ver. 3.0,
including HS-GEAR4, which has a theoretical interface
speed of up to 11.6 Gigabits per second per lane (x2
lanes = 23.2Gbps) while also supporting features that
suppress increases in power consumption. Sequential
read and write performance of the 512GB device are
improved by approximately 70 percent and 80 percent,
respectively, over previous generation 256GB Toshiba
devices.
Toshiba was the first company to introduce UFS devices
and has been shipping since 2013. The introduction
of these UFS Ver. 3.0 devices maintains Toshiba’s
leadership position in storage for next generation
mobile devices which they will continue through driving
further advances.
Samples of the new devices will be on show at
Toshiba’s booth (Hall 3A – 424) at the Embedded World
2019 Exhibition and Conference (26-28 February –
Nuremberg, Germany).
Rohde & Schwarz strengthens its
monitoring and IP contribution business
fields by integrating GMIT GmbH
In 2010, Rohde & Schwarz expanded its product line
by adding software based, cloud-enabled solutions
from GMIT GmbH. The next logical step has now been
taken – to fully integrate the subsidiary into the parent
company. In doing so, the company is following its
strategic goal of offering digital products as a service.
The key products R&S PRISMON and R&S RelayCaster
will be transferred to Rohde & Schwarz and marketed
through a broader global service and sales network
as well as through a partner network. “We have been
working on this shift towards digital products for some
time and now have the right organization to focus
more on this market,” emphasizes Hannes Strobel, Vice
President Monitoring & Headend.
All GMIT GmbH employees will be taken on by Rohde
& Schwarz GmbH & Co KG until the integration is
completed and will remain the contacts for this product
area. All contractual obligations and warranties vis-à-
vis partners and customers remain in effect.
The R&S RelayCaster IP contribution solution helps
ensure the reliable feed and distribution of live A/V
content via unmanaged IP networks, which is especially
advantageous for providers with large networks.
The R&S PRISMON monitoring and multiviewer
solution for broadcast and streaming media provides
a single platform for automatic, convergent monitoring
of media content transported in networks.
