Automotive UFS Version 3.1 is Here

In case you missed it – we recently announced that we have begun sampling1 our new Automotive UFS2 Ver. 3.1 embedded flash memory devices.

This is important news, as the storage requirements for increasingly sophisticated automotive applications continue to progress. UFS is well-suited to support the high-performance and density needs of these applications. Thanks to the increased performance enabled by version 3.1 UFS devices tailored for automotive, enhanced capabilities in functions, such as ADAS3 and infotainment systems, can be realized. Our new devices also support a wide temperature range (-40°C to +105°C), meet AEC4-Q100 Grade2 requirements and offer enhanced reliability capabilities that increasingly complex automotive applications require.
