TAIPEI and MILPITAS, Calif., Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

 

New controller solutions offer best-in-class Power and Performance up to

7,400/6,800 MB/s Sequential Read/Write Speeds

 

Silicon Motion Technology Corporation (NasdaqGS: SIMO) ("Silicon Motion"), a

global leader in designing and marketing NAND flash controllers for solid-state

storage devices, today announced a new portfolio of PCIe 4.0 NVMe 1.4

controller solutions to address performance, mainstream and value SSD

applications. The portfolio consists of SM2264 for performance, SM2267 for

mainstream and SM2267XT for value DRAM-less client SSDs.

Silicon Motion's latest controller family has been designed from the ground up

with PCIe Gen4 technology and innovative hardware features especially optimized

for true Gen4 performance at low power consumption, advanced error correction

as well as data path and EMI protections. To date, ten of the leading global

NAND makers and SSD OEMs have selected Silicon Motion's Gen 4 controllers with

3D TLC and QLC NAND technologies.

 

Don Jeanette, Vice President of TrendFocus, commented, "Silicon Motion has long

been known as a leader in SSD controller technology. The company's new product

introductions are well timed as Gen 4 continues to gain traction and will become

the standard over the next few years for PCs, game consoles and other client devices."

 

"PCIe Gen4 brings the next level of performance for SSDs to the market," said

Wallace Kou, President and CEO of Silicon Motion. "With today's announcement,

Silicon Motion's complete line-up of PCIe 4.0 SSD controller solutions meets

the requirements of the world's top PC OEM and SSD manufacturers into the

future. Already, our new PCIe Gen4 controllers have been designed into SSDs

from leading OEM customers and SM2267 has started volume production."

 

For Performance and Automotive PCIe Gen 4 Solutions: SM2264 Gen4 x 4 Lanes, 8

NAND Channel SSD Controllers

 

Targeted at performance and automotive SSDs, SM2264 features a quad-core ARM R8

CPU with four lanes of 16Gb/s PCIe data flow and supports eight NAND channels

with up to 1,600 MT/s per channel. Its advanced architecture, based on 12nm

process technology, enables high throughput, lower power consumption, and

rigorous data protection while delivering ultra-high speed of sequential

read/write performance of up to 7,400/6,800 MBs and random read/write speeds of

up to 1,000K IOPs. The quad core ARM R8 CPU offers high multithreaded

performance to handle mixed workload operations required by emerging storage

applications. SM2264 is designed with Silicon Motion's state-of-the-art 7th

generation NANDXtend™ ECC technology with a performance-optimized 4KB LDPC

engine and RAID to maximized error correction capability for the latest and

next generation 3D TLC and QLC NAND. SM2264 is also ideal for automotive

storage, offering built-in SR-IOV capability that provides direct, high-speed

PCIe interface for supporting to up to eight Virtual Machines. SM2264 is

currently sampling to leading customers.

 

For Mainstream and Value PCIe Gen 4 SSD Solutions: SM2267 Gen 4x4 Lanes, 4 NAND

Channel and SM2267XT Gen4x4 Lanes, 4 NAND Channels, DRAM-less

 

Silicon Motion's SM2267 and SM2267XT meet the requirements of mainstream and

value client SSDs and feature four 16Gb/s lanes of PCIe and four NAND channels

with up to 1,200 MT/s per channel, delivering an impressive 3,900/3,500 MB/s

sequential read/write performance. SM2267 includes a DRAM interface while the

SM2267XT DRAM-less controller enables small form factor SSDs without compromising

performance. Both also include NANDXtend™ ECC technology and support the latest

TLC and QLC NAND. SM2267 and SM2267XT have entered volume production.
