P2ROM

Strong Support for Faster Program Development and Lower Costs

Providing Usability Rivaling Flash Memory

OKI has developed a Non-Volatile memory P2ROM (Production Programmed ROM) using our unique memory cell structure. The P2ROM enables writing a custom code in the final test process, achieving a shorter turnaround time (TAT) compared to mask ROM where data is written in the wafer process. With the P2ROM, there is no need for mask charges as in mask ROM or additional programming costs as in OTP and Flash memory, thereby minimizing risk and reducing cost.



Features

  • Shorter turnaround time (TAT): Enables data writing in the final test process.
  • No mask charges: Unlike mask ROMs, there is no mask charge for each code.
  • No customer stock: Customers do not need to stock unwritten products.
  • No additional programming costs: Unlike OTP and Flash memory, no additional programming costs are required.
  • Support for special marking --- Custom marking is possible.
  • OTP lineup available: Complete compatibility makes it ideal for development.
