Intel and Micron will part ways on 3D Xpoint development
by from Techreport on (#3V1YC)
Intel and Micron work together to develop and produce not only NAND flash (at least, until recently), but also the lower-latency non-volatile 3D Xpoint memory. The companies jointly announced that next-generation non-volatile media three years ago, and they've produced 3D Xpoint chips at the joint IM Flash fab in Lehi, Utah.
Despite that long history of working together on the technology, Intel and Micron will be calling it quits on the idea side of 3D Xpoint after the memory's second-generation design is completed in the ...
