Toshiba
Corporation (TOKYO:6502) today announced that it has started sample
shipments of a 64-gigabyte (GB) embedded NAND flash memory module, the
first in the industry equipped with a UFS I/F. The module is fully
compliant with the JEDEC UFS Ver.1.1 standard[3] and is
designed for application in a wide range of digital consumer products,
including smartphones, tablet PCs.

Samples are mainly intended for evaluation of UFS I/F and its protocol
in host chipsets and by OS vendors.
Demand continues to grow for large density, high-performance chips that
support high resolution video, driven by improved data-processing speeds
in host chipsets and wider bandwidths for wireless connectivity.
Toshiba has proved itself an innovator in this key area, and is now
reinforcing its leadership by being first in the industry to support
samples with a 64GB UFS module.
Toshiba will schedule mass-production and other densities in its line-up
according to market demand.
