GigaDevice’s GD5F Series SPI NAND Flash Achieves AEC-Q100 Automotive Certification, Fully Enters Automotive Applications

On February 22, 2022, GigaDevice (stock code 603986), a leading semiconductor device supplier, announced that its fully domestically produced 38nm SPI NAND Flash—GD5F series has passed the AEC-Q100 automotive certification.

This series includes products GD5F1GQ5/GD5F2GQ5/GD5F4GQ6, covering capacities from 1Gb to 4Gb. All stages from design and development to manufacturing and packaging testing utilize domestic supply chains, significantly filling the gap in domestic high-capacity automotive storage solutions and fully entering the automotive application field. Moreover, GigaDevice possesses strong localized support and rapid customer response capabilities, accelerating the localization of automotive applications.

GigaDevice's GD5F Series SPI NAND Flash Achieves AEC-Q100 Automotive Certification, Fully Enters Automotive Applications

Currently, the rapid development of automotive electrification and intelligence has stimulated demand from car manufacturers for high-capacity, high-reliability storage solutions. As a carrier for storing code, data, and network protocols in automotive applications, automotive storage chips are playing an increasingly critical role. The GigaDevice GD5F series SPI NAND Flash offers options from 1Gb to 4Gb, further expanding capacity based on the existing GD25 SPI NOR Flash automotive products, providing high-capacity and cost-effective solutions for automotive gateways, DVRs, smart cockpits, T-boxes, and other applications.

As the complexity of automotive electronics and the demand for compact spaces increase, chips with “fewer pins and smaller packages” are gradually favored by car manufacturers. The GigaDevice GD5F series SPI NAND Flash chips utilize mature 38nm process technology and adopt a WSON8 8mm x 6mm small package with fewer pins, achieving large capacity options in confined spaces. Its built-in ECC error correction module greatly enhances product reliability while retaining the cost advantages of NAND; and it achieves up to 100,000 erase cycles within a wide temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Ms. He Fang, Executive Director of GigaDevice’s Automotive Product Division, stated: “With the evolution of the automotive industry towards intelligence and connectivity, new demands for the volume of programs and data processed by automotive storage have emerged, enabled by SOTA (Software Over-The-Air) and MaaS (Mobility as a Service). GigaDevice began its layout in the automotive industry in 2014, leveraging years of experience and accumulation. The 38nm GD5F SPI NAND Flash has passed AEC-Q100 automotive certification and achieved a closed-loop domestic supply chain across the entire industry. In the future, we will continue to focus on automotive industry needs, pay attention to the incremental market, understand customer demands in niche markets, and continuously invest in product reliability, optimization, and upgrades to provide better products and services to the market.”

Currently, the entire GD5F series SPI NAND Flash from GigaDevice has passed AEC-Q100 automotive certification, and it has formed an effective expansion based on its proven automotive-grade GD25 SPI NOR Flash. In the field of Flash memory, GigaDevice has achieved a comprehensive layout of automotive-grade products from SPI NOR Flash to SPI NAND Flash, providing a rich variety of choices for the localization of automotive applications, which also highlights GigaDevice’s persistent investment and innovation in the automotive field.

The GigaDevice GD5F SPI NAND Flash and GD25 SPI NOR Flash automotive products are both in mass production, and customers can contact sales representatives or authorized agents for relevant ordering information.
