Dear Valued Customer,
It has recently come to our attention that Micron has communicated plans to exit the NVDIMM-N business. More specifically, they have informed their customers and partners that they will not be continuing their NVDIMM-N roadmap beyond the current “River” 16GB and 32GB DDR4 programs.
We are writing you today to inform you that AgigA Tech (now an Infineon Technologies Company) and Unigen have entered into a development & manufacturing agreement to ensure long-term support of NVDIMM-N products and technology. Over the last year, our two companies have been closely collaborating on the “Komodo” NVDIMM-N program, and we are happy to announce that will be releasing samples over the next month. For those customers already using Micron NVDIMMs, Komodo will provide a seamless transition as the controller solution and IP for both were developed by AgigA, and are compliant to the JEDEC standards. From a black box perspective, the host driver, controller interface and PowerGEM will all be compatible, requiring no or minimal changes. In addition, by using AgigA’s latest controller design, the backup times and energy consumption for Komodo will be lower than the equivalent Micron NVDIMMs. And for those interested, encryption will also be supported.
From AgigA Tech’s inception in 2007, the company’s sole focus has been on making NVDIMMs successful, and we believe that the technology offers a compelling persistent memory solution. By pairing AgigA’s IP & technology expertise with Unigen’s high volume manufacturing prowess, we believe we can offer a reliable longterm solution for your NVDIMM requirements. Our hope is that you continue to see this value in the technology as well, and that this latest decision from Micron does not deter you from continuing to pursue NVDIMM support on your platforms.
Please do not hesitate to contact either of us directly if interested in discussing further.
