Abstract

Specialty devices are combinations of memory and logic that address a wide variety of applications. They have traditionally offered solutions to critical performance requirements that were otherwise prohibitively expensive or not feasible. As system speeds and integration levels of ICs change, specialty memory devices follow suit, while gaining new applications, and larger markets
