AgigA Tech Granted Patent for Memory Module Reference Voltage Switching Circuit
AgigA Tech, Inc., a leading provider of high-speed, high-density,
battery-free non-volatile memory solutions and a subsidiary of Cypress
Semiconductor Corp., today announced the issuance of United States
Patent No. 9,972,365 relating to reference voltage switching circuitry
for Dual-Inline Memory Modules, or DIMMs. This recently issued patent
brings AgigA Tech's portfolio total to 21 patents granted in the U.S.
and 3 in China.

Since the company's inception more than 10 years ago, AgigA Tech has
built up the industry's most comprehensive portfolio of patents related
to hybrid non-volatile RAM (News - Alert). As a result of this early pioneering work on
the emerging non-volatile DIMM, or NVDIMM, technology standard, AgigA
holds several patents fundamental to the base technology.
"As a key developer of NVDIMM technology, it is critical for AgigA to
build up a strong IP and patent portfolio not only for ourselves, but
for our customers and partners as well," said Ron Sartore, president and
CEO of AgigA Tech. "This latest patent, althugh more subtle in nature
than our other key patents, is important to meet the high-performance
design requirements of persistent memory modules, including NVDIMM-N."
The NVDIMM-N standard defined by JEDEC offers a new class of
non-volatile memory developed to meet the need for higher-performance
persistent memory for enterprise-class storage and server applications,
providing the low latency and nearly infinite endurance of DRAM, along
with the non-volatility of Flash. Enterprise and data center
applications were previously constrained by the higher latency of
existing storage solutions such as SSDs, but they are now able to remove
a significant system bottleneck with the deployment of NVDIMM-N
solutions in their storage hierarchy.
About AgigA Tech, Inc.
Headquartered in San Diego, California, AgigA Tech is a leading
developer of high-speed, high-density, battery-free non-volatile memory
