M-Systems announced the release of the 64MB Mobile DiskOnChip G3, in collaboration with Toshiba, to meet the needs of feature-rich mobile devices, such as PDAs and 2.5G and 3G wireless devices. The G3 Flash disk is based on multilevel cell (MLC) NAND Flash memory, which reduces silicon size up to 50% by storing two bits per cell rather than one. The G3 boosts MLC NAND performance levels to those of binary NAND Flash rates. The G3 is available in a 7 × 10 × 1.2mm Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (FBGA) package and in a TSOP-I form factor for other connected and embedded devices.
