Samsung and Toshiba Supports New Standardized NAND Specs

Faster data rates are what is in store with the new NAND technology and Samsung and Toshiba are all for it. This was bared after both companies have reportedly given their full support for the new NAND Toggle DDR 2.0 specifications.

Under the new specs, NAND using the toggle 2.0 specifications will be about ten times faster compared to the DDR 1.0 spec.

The previous DDR 1.0 spec used a DDR interface with a conventional single data rate with chips using only 133MB interface.

And considering that a data and files are now getting bigger and slower, the new specs should be a welcome development.

The need to address faster data rate speeds has become apparent as new files and technology have added more load to the previous DDR specs which had a 40Mbps single data rate NAND.

At ten times faster, designers can now benchmark and shift to the new DDR specifications.

Support for the new spec will make for faster acceptance of toggle DDR memory with designers of hardware and applications according to Toshiba and Samsung.
