Weebit Nano (WBT) has qualified its Resistive Random-Access Memory (ReRAM) module up to 125 degrees Celsius, meeting the temperature requirements for automotive-grade one Non-Volatile Memories (NVMs).

Weebit ReRAM is now suitable for use in microcontrollers, automotive components, and various high-temperature industrial and Internet of Things (IoT) applications.

The qualification process involved testing Weebit’s demo chips, manufactured in partnership with R&D partner CEA-Leti, following the well-established JEDEC industry standards for NVMs.

These tests included evaluating multiple silicon dies from three independent wafer lots. All the Weebit dies successfully passed the entire set of qualification tests at 125 degrees Celsius for 10 years retention.

Weebit Nano CEO Coby Hanoch said the achievement was part of an ongoing process to extend the qualification of the company’s ReRAM technology to even higher temperatures, longer retention periods, and improved endurance levels. 

The company’s ReRAM technology has gained substantial interest from tier-one foundries and semiconductor companies for automotive and industrial applications.

Weebit’s ReRAM demo chip comprises a complete sub-system for embedded applications, including a 128Kb 1T1R ReRAM array, control logic, decoders, IOs, and error-correcting code.

Weebit Nano shares were up 3.06 per cent, trading at $6.39 at 11:23 am AEST.
