Topic: New Methods for Testing FLASH Memory
Description:
Even though FLASH memory is a well-established memory technology, continuous advances, such as multi-level cell (MLC), are aimed at achieving increased density. New measurement techniques and capabilities are also becoming available, from characterizing a single transistor for development purposes to integrated and automated solutions for FLASH production.
During this webinar, fundamentals of FLASH technology testing will be reviewed, incorporating a discussion of FN (Fowler-Nordheim) and (HEI) (Hot Electron Injection) programming and erasing. Different aspects of testing applicable to single FLASH transistors and FLASH array testing will be considered, including standard transistor characterization, endurance, and disturb testing. The pulse fidelity requirement for MLC testing will also be discussed. These applications will be demonstrated via Keithley's new Ultra Fast I-V test solution, which offers better control of the pulse shape and amplitude, and, as a result, is well-suited for MLC FLASH testing, and also Keithley's ACS software, which manages a range of testing scenarios.
Target Audience
This webinar will be beneficial for people with established FLASH test setups, as well as those looking for a test solution.

Topic: Phase Change Memory - Fundamentals and Measurement Techniques
Description:
Phase Change Memory, a type of non-volatile computer memory also known as PRAM, PCM, and PCRAM, is a new and promising technology. PRAM uses the unique behavior of chalcogenide glass, which can be switched between two states, crystalline and amorphous, with the application of heat. Recent versions can achieve two additional distinct states, effectively doubling its storage capacity.
This webinar will provide basic information on the physics and operation of PRAM memory elements. Common characterization and measurement techniques will be described and compared, including the R-Load method and a technique using Keithley’s ultra-fast IV unit.
Target Audience:
This seminar is recommended primarily for test engineers and test engineering managers who are new to making PRAM measurements, but it will be useful for the experienced user, as well.

Topic: SIMPLE SWITCHER Power Module–Simplest way to solve your power supply need efficiently
Description:
In today's system design, design cycle time is very short. In many cases, power supply design is put as the last task and PCB space left behind for power circuit is very limited. This issue can be solved by the LMZ-series of power modules introduced by National Semiconductor. SIMPLE SWITCHER Power Module series is an enhancement of the highly successful SIMPLE SWITCHER® family; the new series has a higher level of integration and user can experience new meaning of "ease of use".
The power modules provide the efficiency of a synchronous switching regulator with the simplicity of a linear regulator, eliminating the external inductor and complex layout placement challenges typical of switching regulator designs.
Besides explaining the features of SIMPLE SWITCHER Power Module, this web seminar will touch on the new WEBENCH Power Architect design tool. The enhanced WEBENCH Power Architect enables engineers to rapidly create multi-output DC-DC power supplies for an entire system. SIMPLE SWITCHER Power Module & Power Architect works hand in hand to tackle any power issue from concept to prototype in unprecedented short period of time.

Topic: Driving High Speed Signals in Data Center Servers and Storage Area Networks
Description:
With less capital available for continuous system "upgrades", new data center solutions must be flexible and energy efficient to support the multi-faceted expansions to keep ahead of users data storage needs. Engineers are leveraging open industry standards like PCI Express (PCIe) and SAS/SATA, to create cost-efficient architectures which address current and future data center requirements. In this webinar, we are going to discuss the key concerns that system designers face while designing high-speed interconnects and the solutions that can support PCIe 2.5/5.0G and SAS/SATA 3.0/6.0G. National Semiconductor is ready for the future system requirements.
