SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Altera
Corporation (NASDAQ: ALTR) is attending the Flash Memory Summit at
the Santa Clara Convention Center,
August 10-13, 2015, (Booth #486) and
is demonstrating a new NAND Flash reference design that
extends the life of flash memory up to 7x. In addition, Altera is
sharing how FPGAs can be used to accelerate functions in the data
center, and to enable storage and memory virtualization. Altera
computer and storage experts also are presenting multiple
technology sessions and offering tutorials on high-performance
flash applications.
The Altera NAND storage reference design is based on the Altera
Arria® 10 SoC. It implements Mobiveil's Universal NVM Express
Controller (UNEX), a configurable controller for PCIe-based SSDs,
and NVMdurance's NAND flash optimization software. The reference
design enables data center operators to leverage the most advanced
3D NAND technology without the long design cycles required with
ASIC designs.
In addition, Altera is showcasing memory application development
kits and cards that can address requirements for the following:
- High speed, and for low latency IO interfaces and
protocols
- SSD controllers
- OpenCL-based accelerators
- Optical PCIe
- Non-volatile DIMMs and memories.
