Phison launches a full range of UFS storage solutions to create ultimate mobile storage performance

Phison Electronics (Phison; 8299TT), a leader in NAND control chips and NAND storage solution integration services, announced today (1/29) the launch of a full range of UFS chips (PS8325 , PS8327 , PS8329 , PS8361) , covering entry-level, mid-range to flagship A mobile phone that delivers ultimate mobile storage performance.

Phison launches a full range of UFS storage solutions to create ultimate mobile storage performance

As mobile phone users pursue performance, more and more storage devices (Storage Devices) of 5G entry-level models have switched from eMMC to UFS 2.2 storage devices, and even flagship 4G mobile phone models have begun to adopt the UFS 2.2 specification. Compared with the half-duplex mode of eMMC , the full-duplex mode of UFS 2.2 significantly increases the reading speed by three times. It can not only cope with mobile phone functions that require processing large amounts of data ( such as high-resolution recording and video ) , but UFS can also Under the premise of comparing the same performance and speed with eMMC , it consumes lower power, which helps to improve the battery life of mobile phones and tablet computers, while meeting the high performance and low power consumption needs of mobile devices (Mobile Devices) .

In view of this trend, Phison launched the PS8327, the most cost-effective UFS 2.2 controller chip in history , to meet the rising demand for high-speed mobile storage. Adopting 22nm process technology, PS8327 is the smallest UFS 2.2 control chip. It can achieve UFS 2.2 top speed of 1000MB/s in a single channel with a low-capacity 64GB storage capacity , bringing cost and performance to mobile devices at the same time. , low power consumption and other multiple advantages.

In addition, PS8327 adopts the sixth-generation LDPC ECC engine independently developed by Phison , which has more reliable and powerful error correction capabilities. It can not only perfectly support the existing NAND product specifications of many NAND original manufacturers , but will also support it in the future. Specifications of next-generation NAND products to be launched soon .

Pan Jiancheng, CEO of Phison Electronics, said that Phison has accumulated more than ten years of research and development experience in the field of UFS and has a very solid foundation in the research and development, verification and technical capabilities of control chips. UFS 2.2 PS8327 control chip is the culmination of more than ten years of Phison’s UFS R&D technology, coupled with Phison’s achievements and experience in dozens of UFS storage solutions that have been verified by the three major mobile phone chip suppliers, making the PS8327 control chip a It has been designated by many NAND original manufacturers since its launch. It is expected that mobile devices equipped with Phison PS8327 UFS storage solution will also be extremely competitive in the market.

Including PS8327 , Phison launched a total of four UFS control chips (PS8325 , PS8327 , PS8329 , PS8361) this year , comprehensively upgrading the competitiveness of the UFS product line; covering entry-level, mid-range to flagship mobile phones, all corresponding to the latest The best UFS storage solution meets all the needs of consumers in one place.

• UFS 3.1 PS8325 : Locked for high-end mobile phones. Equipped with TSMC 12nm process and dual-channel design, it can support the latest 1Tb NAND , using the least NAND particles to reach a total capacity of 1TB , with the advantages of high capacity and low cost. 4KB LDPC independently developed by Phison , which has advanced and powerful ECC error correction capabilities, which can greatly improve the stability and service life of mobile phone memory. At present, PS8325 design win from many international first-tier mobile phone manufacturers , and is expected to begin mass supply in the first quarter of this year.

• UFS 3.1 PS8329: Focus on the mid-range mobile phone market that pursues high cost performance. Adopting a 22nm process technology, PS8329 is the smallest UFS 3.1 control chip among similar products on the market, and can achieve a maximum read and write speed of more than 2000MB/s through single-channel specifications . In addition, the 4K LDPC ECC error correction engine provides next-generation NAND Flash has the best compatibility and performance and is a highly competitive UFS 3.1 storage solution. PS8329 plans to start shipping samples in June this year.

• UFS 4.0 PS8361: Aiming at the highest specification flagship mobile phone market. Equipped with TSMC 12nm and four-channel design, PS8361 's maximum read and write speed will exceed 4000MB/s , which is twice the performance of UFS 3.1 , and will be able to meet various high-speed data transmission, APP quick startup, multi-tasking and other functions requirements, significantly shortening the waiting time for application loading, giving consumers the most seamless experience. At the same time, PS8361 will effectively extend the battery efficiency of mobile devices with the improvement of reading performance per unit mA . At present, PS8361 has been designated by NAND original manufacturers and is expected to be available in the second half of this year.
