World-leading Silicon Valley based Interface Switching ReRAM developer Completed Additional Wafers Lot of 300mm wafers, most successful to date Demonstrated record improvement in speed and endurance 4DS is the most advanced Interface Switching ReRAM The most promising Interface Switching ReRAM cell for Storage Class Memory Joint development agreement with Western Digital subsidiary HGST since 2014 Strategic collaboration with imec signed in November 2017 23 granted US patents wholly owned and 9 pending or filed Completed A$4.5 mil placement, launched A$2.5 k SPP mil 3 THE CHALLENGE. DRAM and NAND Flash are the main technologies utilized today. Both are US$95-56 billion annual markets – and growing. DRAM is super-fast, has exceptional endurance but is expensive and volatile NAND Flash is slow, has limited endurance but is cheap and non-volatile A new innovation is needed and the industry refers to it as Storage Class Memory - over time this is predicted to have a market size as large as DRAM and NAND Flash 4 STORAGE CLASS MEMORY Attempts to combine the best characteristics of DRAM and NAND Flash Storage Class Memory is emerging as the leading new category to extend the memory hierarchy. 4DS Interface Switching ReRAM will not be a “me too” technology in the embedded and NAND Flash sectors. Interface Switching ReRAM is a unique ReRAM being developed specifically for Storage Class Memory applications. Access Time (Sec) STORAGE CLASS MEMORY. Storage Memory Non-Volatile NAND Flash Volatile Storage Class Memory DRAM Die Cost ($/GB) Battleground for next generation memory technology. Faster – DRAM-like read speed Cheaper – NAND Flash-like costs Non-volatile – Retains data when power is off 5 BEST DATA SET RECORDED BY 4DS. 4DS Interface Switching ReRAM has now shown record achievements in relevant Storage Class Memory categories Best endurance data recorded – two to three times better than previously reported Highest recorded speed near DRAM speed – an area-based ReRAM first – US patents now granted No need for speed crippling error correction – a ReRAM first – US patents now granted Retention data recorded – additional studies to be completed to assess upper limits Data validated by two of the worlds leading semiconductor participants – imec / HGST 6 SEVEN YEAR PARTNERSHIP WITH HGST. HGST, is a subsidiary of Western Digital Corporation (US$13.5 billion market cap), one of the largest global leaders in digital storage Strategic innovator in emerging high growth technologies Commenced JDA in 2014 – Renewed in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 Insight into what is important in a data-centric world Now actively involved with 4DS / imec and remain committed to Storage Class Memory Siva Sivaram, President of Technology and Strategy at Western Digital , commented “We are committed to ReRAM, it is scalable with greater density, lower cost and latency and longer endurance”* *12/8/2016 EE Times – 14 Views from the Flash Summit 7 WORLD # 1 AND 4DS PARTNER. imec, is the world’s #1 independent semiconductor development institute Collaborates with the who’s who of electronic products and systems Collaborates with makers of high-volume high-density memories Has a world leading track record in the transfer of semiconductor processes Uses the same tools as industry for high-volume production of high-density memories Has a proven megabit memory platform to fast track development of megabit chip Used this platform to explore a wide range of emerging memories 8 COLLABORATION OBJECTIVES. imec and 4DS completed Additional Wafers Lot manufacturing after discussions and input from Western Digital Complete discussions with imec and HGST in July 2020 regarding next steps to incorporate new technical developments established from first megabit platform and additional wafers iterations Develop a fully transferable fabrication compatible process Mimic industry standard high volume production Utilizing imec’s proven megabit memory platform reduces time and cost End goal is to fabricate a megabit 4DS Interface Switching chip with a fully functioning Storage Class Memory 9 BOARD AND MANAGEMENT.
