Silicon Technology (NasdaqGS: SIMO), a prominent global player in NAND flash memory control chips, has announced its participation in FMS 2023 (Flash Memory Summit 2023).
Enterprise-Level PCIe Gen5 SSD Development Platform
One of the highlights is the MonTitan™ PCIe Gen5 Enterprise SSD Development Platform. This platform incorporates the SM8366 PCIe Gen5 x4 NVMe SSD controller chip, meticulously crafted for the demanding requirements of enterprises and data centers. This controller chip, equipped with 16 NAND channels, can accommodate up to 2400MT/s TLC and QLC NAND, delivering remarkable sequential read and write performance (14GB/s) as well as random read and write performance (3 million IOPS). The MonTitan™ platform showcases cutting-edge features, including:
- Industry-first PCIe Gen5 ZNS SSD (Zoned Namespace SSD), tailored for QLC NAND, achieving high-performance, high-capacity SSDs while optimizing total cost of ownership (TCO) and enhancing sequential storage QoS.
- Adoption of PerformaShape™ technology, which offers four user-defined QoS settings to optimize performance, power consumption, and latency in multi-tenant environments.
- Demonstration of the OCP 2.0 NVMe Gen5 data center E1.S SSD, catering to compute-intensive applications requiring performance scalability and superior QoS.
The MonTitan SSD development platform will be exhibited on servers supporting traditional U.2 and EDSFF SSDs, including AIC's EB202-CP, Pegatron's Luigi, and ASUS's ESR-511-X4TF.
