From small industrial components deployed in automation systems to large equipment used for oil drilling, project operations are asked to provide precise instructions, occasionally in harsh environments. Therefore, it is critical to maintain the accuracy of data output in addition to maintaining continuous, stable operating performance.
Challenges and Requirements
As tasks in industrial applications become more complex, they still require high-capacity performance and reliable computing to handle light to heavy workloads, with work cycles that vary from hours to around the clock. Access to systems that operate in harsh environments can be difficult, making it essential to design durable systems with long operating lives that can withstand a variety of environmental conditions.
Most data generated from industrial applications is high-value and sensitive, requiring specific safeguards for access and securing the data. It is crucial to build a storage solution with a small footprint to fit into space-constrained locations while providing reliability, power efficiency, and unbreakable data encryption security.
SMART's DRAM Solutions
• DDR5 Zefr ZDIMM - ZDIMMs (Zefr Memory Module) are rigorously tested to eliminate over 90% of memory reliability failures, ensuring maximum application uptime and optimizing memory subsystem reliability. ZDIMMs utilize SMART’s Zefr™ proprietary screening process, ensuring the industry’s highest levels of uptime and reliability.
• DDR5 RDIMM - SMART's DDR5 RDIMMs are designed to meet increasing needs for efficient performance in a wide range of applications including cloud computing, and data center processing. The DDR5 memory provides developers with twice the performance (4800 to 6400 MT/s) and improved power efficiency in comparison to DDR4 by using an on-DIMM 12V voltage regulator (PMIC) and 1.1 I/O Voltage.
• DDR4 MIP™ - SMART Modular’s MIP (Module-In-a-Package) is a Tiny Form Factor (TFF) memory module that combines the benefits of industry standard SODIMMs with SMART’s proprietary stacking technology. About the size of a nickel, SMART’s MIP occupies 1/5th the area of a SODIMM while offering higher performance and lower power.
SMART's Flash Solutions
• MP3000 PCIe NVMe SSDs - SMART’s MP3000 PCIe NVMe SSDs incorporate the latest generation 3D NAND-technology to deliver high performance with endurance up to one drive write per day (1 DWPD) for five years. The MP3000 SSDs offer better cost per bit over previous 64-layer and 96-layer NAND generations without sacrificing performance and reliability.
• ME2 SATA SSDs - SMART’s ME2 SATA SSDs incorporate the latest generation 3D NAND-technology and SMART Modular’s proprietary NVMSentry™ firmware to deliver high performance SSD products with endurance up to one drive write per day (1 DWPD) for five years.
• BGAE640 eMMC - SMART’s BGAE640 eMMC is a soldered-down Flash storage solution that combines NAND Flash memory, an embedded MMC (MultiMediaCard) Controller, and advanced firmware in a small BGA (Ball Grid Array) package that provides stable, yet cost effective high-density embedded storage.
