The amount of NAND memory that exists today is staggering. There are many different kinds of NAND, and the needed type is based on the intended application. Sometimes you need high-speed memory, sometimes very dense memory, and sometimes you need the memory to go into an environment that’s less than favorable.
But the memory itself is just one piece of the system puzzle.
You also need a controller to go with that memory. You might think like I did, that the controller is fairly simple to design and would be something the memory suppliers can handle without breaking a sweat. As I learned in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast with Robert Fan, a Senior Vice President with Silicon Motion, it’s harder than you might think. And for that reason, the controllers from vendors like Silicon Motion are highly in demand.
