Micron Technology and Denali Announce the Availability of Simulation Models for SyncFlash Memory.Business/High-Tech Editors BOISE, Idaho--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 31, 2000 Models Simplify Integration of New SyncFlash(TM) Memory Technology for System Designers Micron Technology Micron Technology ("Micron") NYSE: MU is a multinational company based in Boise, Idaho, USA, best known for producing many forms of semiconductor devices. This includes DRAM, SDRAM, flash memory, and CMOS image sensing chips. , Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :MU), and Denali Software Denali Software, Inc. is an American software company, based in Palo Alto, California. The company produces electronic design automation (EDA) software and intellectual property (IP) design cores for memory and other standard interfaces. , Inc., today announced the availability of high-performance simulation models for Micron's recently announced SyncFlash memory devices. The first SyncFlash memory model, for a 1Meg x 16 x 4 banks device, is currently available through Denali. "System designers using new, advanced memory technologies like SyncFlash memory need a way to integrate it into their applications," said Darrell Rinerson, Micron Technology's vice president of Flash Memory Products. "Denali's modeling technology enables our customers to quickly and easily add new Micron memory components to their system-level designs." "Our customers are building the most advanced system designs for consumer, computing, and communication applications," said Sanjay Srivastava, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Denali. "Our goal is to give these designers early access to the latest memory technologies, such as Micron's SyncFlash devices, so they can accelerate the memory integration task. With Denali's Memory Modeler and SyncFlash memory models, system designers can integrate SyncFlash devices into their memory subsystems with a high level of confidence that the subsystem will work." Micron is using Denali's SOMA(TM) (Specification of Memory Architecture) language, which supports more than 20 popular simulation tools used by system designers to verify complex designs. The availability of these models enables designers to instantly access the most up-to-date and accurate memory models for system design and verification. SOMA models for Micron's SyncFlash memory components as well as various Flash, SRAM See static RAM.
