Catalyst introduces lead-free packages.Catalyst Semiconductor (Sunnyvale, CA, www.catalystsemiconductor.com), a worldwide EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM) A rewritable memory chip that holds its content without power. Although EEPROMs spawned flash memory, EEPROMs are byte addressable at the write level, whereas flash chips must erase a block of bytes before rewriting. memory supplier, recently announced its environmentally safe lead-free package initiative. The company now offers lead-free packages for its SPI (1) (Stateful Packet Inspection) See stateful inspection. (2) (Service Provider Interface) The programming interface for developing Windows drivers under WOSA. [TM], 12C[R] and Microwire[TM] serial EEPROM memory integrated circuits Integrated circuits Miniature electronic circuits produced within and upon a single semiconductor crystal, usually silicon. Integrated circuits range in complexity from simple logic circuits and amplifiers, about 1/20 in. (1. . The new lead-free packages are an environment friendly alternative to lead-based packages. Catalyst has partnered with Orient Semiconductor Electronics (OSE OSE - Open Systems Environment , Laguna, Philippines, www.ose.com.tw), a supplier of semiconductor manufacturing services with operations in the Philippines, for lead-free package technology. |
