NovoBytes™ – For All the Write Reasons

Novocell’s NovoBytes one-time programmable (OTP) nonvolatile memory IP is a NVM block which can be embedded in standard Logic CMOS without any additional process steps or post processing, and has the ability to be programmed at wafer level, in package, or in the field.

NovoBytes, previously known as NovoBlox Nano, is a new area efficient version of our reliability leading NovoBlox OTP from 2002. The new NovoBytes product line features space efficient addressable arrays from 64bit to 32Kbits with a 70% smaller footprint. Custom aspect ratios are always available, and, like our pioneering NovoBlox OTP, NovoBytes programs dynamically until all bits are programmed, eliminating the tail bit failures observed in other OTP solutions.

NovoBytes MTP is a special version of NovoBytes, providing off-the-shelf 2x, 4x, and 8x multi-time write capabilities, or up to 1000x write in custom configurations. Contact Novocell for details on storage and write options.
