Fujitsu's Random Access Memory(RAM) for SiP
（Fast Cycle RAM）
The spread of Social Network Service(SNS) and cloud computing lead to dramatic change of
our life style and business style. The data volume of digital media contents has become larger
scale. In order to process the large data smoothly, high performance memories are required.
On the other hand, low power consumption is a key factor for long battery life. FCRAM(Fast
Cycle RAM) has challenged to deli
ver best balance between performance and power
consumption for dedicated applications.
Mobile FCRAM is a high density and low power pseudo SRAM for mobile applications. The
FCRAM appeared in 2000 as an alternative memory of low power SRAM which had been used
for mobile phones, and at the time the Mobile FCRAM density was the industry's largest for
RAM memories used in the mobile phones. It had cont
ributed to the dramatic market
expansion.
Consumer FCRAM is a Low Power SDRAM and suitable for digital TVs and digital video cameras
that require high-speed data transfer for display and video processing. The FCRAM features
low power consumption, high data bandwidth, high temperature of 125˚C operation, and is
optimized for SiP(System in Package). Recently market for digital media applications wit
h
enriched functions such as High Definition video and 3-D video is spreading rapidly, and the
FCRAM is well positioned for that video processing applications.
Not only offering FCRAM products as a pure memory solution, Fujitsu also able to customize
FCRAM core-based DRAM, and a SiP solution which containing ASIC/ASSP and FCRAM. Beyond
FCRAM, Fujitsu Semiconductors offers a wide range of products to
satisfy various requirements
and applications.
FCRAM provides great product values and cost solution
for digital consumer electronics and mobile applications.
