MNEMOSYNE — A non-volatile memory designed for space

Mnemosyne, in Greek mythology, is the personification of memory. She is one of the Titans, daughter of Uranus (Sky) and Gaia (Earth). Mnemosyne played a crucial role in the lives of the gods, as she was the mother of the nine Muses, who inspired art and science. Her name is derived from the Greek word "mnēmē," meaning memory, symbolizing her power to preserve knowledge and wisdom across generations. Integrating her legacy with Mnemosyne memory technology highlights the enduring importance of reliability and information retention in space applications.

MNEMOSYNE - First Design ( Test vehicle ASIC)

MNEMOSYNE is a new non-volatile Radhard memory developed as part of a European project. The ASIC embedded in our module is manufactured in Europe using a 22 nm FDSOI process. This new portfolio of non-volatile memories features a serial or parallel interface, embedded ECC and counters. With memory densities from 128 Mbit to 1 Gbit, MNEMOSYNE modules are compatible with the latest generation of FPGAs and processors.

  • First delivery: September 2023
  • Space-qualified memory with high configuration density
  • Best-in-class reliability (data retention, P/E cycles, radiation)
  • Ease of customer life with additional features for error management strategy
    (ECC_flags, error counters)
  • Scalability (512 Mbit & 1 Gbit are pin to pin compatible)

The MNEMOSYNE project, backed by the European Union's Horizon 2020 program, aims to create a European-independent, radiation-hardened, high-density non-volatile memory for space applications. Led by 3D PLUS, this initiative brings together top experts in radiation effects and space electronics from institutions such as IMEC, Padova University, TRAD, NanoXplore, and Beyond Gravity. This collaborative effort has resulted in a memory solution setting new standards in the space industry.

3DMN512M08US4853 or 3DMN1G08US8854 is a high performance 512 Mbit or 1 Gbit non-volatile memory with a serial interface.

The 512 Mbit /1 Gbit memory module seemingly replaces any SPI NOR flash memory by providing a high-speed, low pin count SPI-compatible bus interface with a single 1.8 V power supply. It delivers up to 200 MBps reads and writes over 8 I/O signals at a clock frequency of 100 MHz.

This native latch-up immunized memory, manufactured using an FDSOI process, is radiation tolerant by design. Additional protection against transient effects is provided by an embedded controller with ECC.

In addition, an ECC flag and error counter are provided to assist the user in their error management strategy. These features are helpful in extending the life of the module in the radiation environment.

  • Demonstrate new generation radiation-resistant, high-density, non-volatile program memory with serial interface
  • The independence of European space strategy against U.S., Russian and Chinese actors.
  • first EU-independent high-density radiation-hardened non-volatile memory (NVM) by leveraging Magnetic RAM (MRAM) technology and the expertise of six key partners specializing in radiation hardening and high-performance components for space applications.
