I apologize for the entirely inexcusable delay between posts in this series.  I had every intention of getting this post completed earlier this year, but life and work have both been very busy.  Better late . . . → Read More: Density and Disturbances: The NAND Block

Floating Gates and Electron Tunnels: Flash Retains Data

This post is part of the “Learning Flash: For Storage Engineers” series.  Click here, if you missed the intro post.

Finally, my friends, we are getting to the good stuff.  In this post, I’ll be discussing how the greatest limitation of the transistor (data-loss after power-loss) was overcome by introducing some additional components into the transistor.  I . . . → Read More: Floating Gates and Electron Tunnels: Flash Retains Data

Magnets vs Electrons: The Foundation of Flash

This post is part of the “Learning Flash: For Storage Engineers” series.  Click here, if you missed the intro post.

If we are going to really understand flash, we need to start at the basics.  Back to the bits.  The storage and transmission of digital information is done through the use of bits, which . . . → Read More: Magnets vs Electrons: The Foundation of Flash
