Inkumbulo eqinile engaguquguquki ingena ngokuthula ekuphileni. Inkampani yaseJapan iPanasonic imemezele ukuqala kokukhiqizwa kwama-microcontrollers anememori eyakhelwe ngaphakathi ye-ReRAM enamazinga obuchwepheshe angama-40 nm. Kodwa i-chip eyethulwe nayo iyathakazelisa ngezinye izizathu eziningi.
Njengoba umbiko wabezindaba usitshela , ngoFebhuwari inkampani izoqala ukuthumela amasampula esilawuli esincane esisebenza ngezindlela eziningi ukuze kuvikelwe izinto ezixhumeke ku-inthanethi ezingozini eziningi ze-inthanethi. Isici esibalulekile sesilawuli kuzoba yibhulokhi yememori eyakhelwe ngaphakathi engu-256 KB ye-ReRAM.
Inkumbulo ye-ReRAM incike kumgomo wokumelana okulawulwa kungqimba lwe-oxide, okuyenza imelane kakhulu nemisebe. Ngakho-ke, lesi silawuli esincane sizoba esidingweni sokuphatha ukuvikelwa kwemishini yezokwelapha ngesikhathi sokukhiqizwa kwezinsimbi nezidakamizwa kusetshenziswa ukuchayeka emisebeni ngesikhathi sokubulala amagciwane (ukuvala inzalo).
Ake sigxile kancane ku-ReRAM. I-Panasonic ibilokhu ithuthukisa lolu hlobo lwenkumbulo cishe iminyaka engama-20, noma mhlawumbe isikhathi eside. Inkampani yaqala ukukhiqiza ama-microcontrollers nge-ReRAM ngo-2013 isebenzisa ubuchwepheshe benqubo ye-180 nm. Ngaleso sikhathi, i-Panasonic's ReRAM ayikwazanga ukuncintisana ne-NAND. Kamuva, iPanasonic yahlangana nenkampani yaseTaiwan i-UMC ukuthuthukisa nokukhiqiza iReRAM enamazinga angu-40 nm.
Kungenzeka ukuthi ama-microcontrollers e-Panasonic anikezwe namuhla nge-40 nm ReRAM akhiqizwa ezimbonini zase-Japan ze-UMC (zathengwa eminyakeni embalwa edlule kwaFujitsu). I-40nm ReRAM eshumekiwe isingakwazi kakade ukuncintisana ne-40nm NAND eshumekiwe enanini lamapharamitha: isivinini, ukwethembeka, inombolo ephezulu yemijikelezo yokusula kanye nokumelana nemisebe.
Ngokuqondene nemisebenzi esemqoka ye-Panasonic microcontroller, ikhulise ukuvikelwa ekugetshengeni nasekuntshontsheni idatha. Isixazululo sizosetshenziswa kumishini yezimboni kanye nohlu olubanzi lwengqalasizinda. I-chip ngayinye inesihlonzi se-analogi esiyingqayizivele esakhelwe kuso - into efana nezigxivizo zeminwe zomuntu. Kusetshenziswa lesi “zigxivizo zeminwe”, kuzokwenziwa ukhiye oyingqayizivele ukuze kugunyazwe i-chip kunethiwekhi nokudlulisa (ukuthola) idatha kuyo. Ukhiye awusoze waphuma futhi uzobhujiswa ngokushesha ngemva kokuqinisekisa, okuzovikela ekungeneni kokhiye kunkumbulo yesilawuli.
I-microcontroller ifakwe ne-NFC transceiver. Idatha evela kusilawuli ingafundwa ngisho noma idivayisi iphelelwe amandla, isibonelo, uma abahlaseli becisha ugesi endaweni evikelekile. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngosizo lwe-NFC kanye nedivayisi yeselula, isilawuli (ipulatifomu) singaxhunywa ku-inthanethi ngisho nangaphandle kokukhipha inethiwekhi ngokukhethekile kulokhu. Iphuzu elibuthakathaka lihlala lingabahlinzeki besevisi ye-inthanethi, kodwa lena akuyona inkinga yePanasonic.
