Avalanche Technology and WT Microelectronics Announce Distribution Agreement for Asia Pacific

FREMONT, Calif., Aug. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Avalanche Technology, the leader in next generation MRAM technology, today announced that it has entered into an agreement with WT Microelectronics to distribute Avalanche's portfolio of discrete non-volatile memories in the Asia Pacific region.

WT Microelectronics, headquartered in Taipei, Taiwan will offer Avalanche Technology's industry leading portfolio of non-volatile memories to its industrial, aerospace, IoT and storage customers to enable leading-edge low energy and high performance solutions.

"The high access speed, low power consumption and excellent endurance of Avalanche's STT MRAM products will bring significant benefits to our customers who are developing industrial, automotive and consumer applications", said Willie Sun, Vice President and Chief Application Officer of WT Microelectronics. "We are excited to collaborate with Avalanche on exploring the promising opportunity of STT MRAM through WT's broad coverage and streamlined support in the Asia Pacific region".

"Entering into this partnership with WT Microelectronics will allow us to support our expanding global base of customers requiring the next generation of non-volatile memories and extend our reach into segments that require extreme reliability and non volatility" said Danny Sabour, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "Not only will we benefit from WT's technical, sales and logistics expertise, but our collaboration today will build the infrastructure needed to support future generations of non-volatile high density memories."

Avalanche's second generation of high performance P-SRAM devices are available:

• At densities of up to 16Mb in 108-MHz Quad Serial Peripheral Interface (QSPI) performance as a byte addressable memory, thus eliminating the need for software device drivers,
• In up to Industrial Plus temperature in a variety of small form factor industry pin compatible RoHS packages, and
• In a wide range of voltages from 1.71V to 3.6V, suitable for today's industrial SoCs as well as future generations of low voltage and low energy devices.
