Everspin Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRAM), the world’s leading developer and manufacturer of Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) solutions, today announced that Steffen Hellmold, vice president of corporate strategy, is serving as chair of the JEDEC task group focused on exploring a new LPDDR persistent memory (PMEM) standard.
The task group was established under JEDEC’s JC-42.6 Low Power Memories Subcommittee following expressions of support from several participating member companies. The proposed effort is intended to explore how persistent memory could leverage the existing LPDDR ecosystem while limiting changes to LPDDR DRAM standards and host controllers.
The work is intended to enable controller support for both DRAM and persistent memory, as well as approaches that enable LPDDR DRAM and persistent memory from multiple vendors to operate within compatible system architectures.
Steffen Hellmold, vice president of corporate strategy at Everspin Technologies and chair of the new JEDEC task group, has participated in JEDEC standards activities for more than 30 years. His career spans product development, technology strategy, business development and corporate strategy across the semiconductor, memory and data storage industries.
“I’m excited to support the JEDEC LPDDR Persistent Memory Task Group as it evaluates requirements and possible standards approaches for persistent memory within the LPDDR ecosystem,” Hellmold said. “Everspin brings more than 10 years of experience shipping DDR STT-MRAM for data center applications, giving us a practical understanding of how to integrate persistent memory into customer systems. We look forward to contributing that experience and expertise to the task group’s work.”
The task group brings together participants from across the semiconductor, memory, storage, controller and hyperscale data center ecosystem. Companies interested in participating can find information about JEDEC membership and the LPDDR PMEM effort on the JEDEC website at https://www.jedec.org/join-jedec.
