Weebit Nano, the Aussie embedded NVM specialist, expects to tape-out its ReRAM test chip with onsemi before the end of the year.

Following tape-out and qualification, Weebit ReRAM will be available in onsemi’s Treo platform, offering a cost-effective, low-power NVM suitable for use in high temperature applications such as automotive and industrial.

DB HiTek has fabbed a fully-functional demo chip and Weebit aims to finish the qualification process before the end of 2025. Once fully qualified at DB HiTek, Weenbit’s IP will become accessible to hundreds of its DB Hitek customers for use in next-generation automotive, AI, microcontroller and power management applications.

After qualification, Weebit’s NVM IP will be available in DB HiTek’s 130nm weebit-150x150.jpgBipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) process – which has broad applicability across consumer, industrial and IoT applications.

AI, automotive and power management are the three domains where Weebit Nano is experiencing the strongest level of customer engagement. Weebit ReRAM is suitable for these applications as a BEOL technology. which can scale below 28nm and retain data for up to 10 years at 150°C.

Weebit says it is in discussions with more than a dozen leading foundries, IDMs and product companies.

In July, Weebit signed a design licence agreement with its first product customer – a US- based company that plans to incorporate Weebit’s technology into select security-related applications.

In the last quarter, the company had customer receipts of A$1.4m and R&D expenses of A$3.5m.
