For these applications, Weebit ReRAM provides a low-power, low-voltage, cost-effective NVM that is easy to integrate and has proven excellent retention at high temperatures. As a back-end-of-line (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/definition\/beol-memory\/\">BEOL<\/a>) technology which does not require process tuning, ReRAM offers significant advantages over flash for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/definition\/bcd-bcdmos\/\">BCD<\/a> processes. Weebit ReRAM also provides higher density and endurance than conventional Multi-Time Programmable (MTP) technologies.<\/p>\n<p>The agreement includes technology transfer, qualification, and licensing. In addition to its 130nm BCD process, DB HiTek has the option to use Weebit ReRAM technology for other process nodes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coby Hanoch, CEO of Weebit Nano, said:<\/strong> \u201cDB HiTek is one of the world\u2019s top-tier foundries for analog and power integrated circuits. As one of the world\u2019s largest contract chip manufacturers, DB HiTek\u2019s extensive customer base can gain significant advantage from using Weebit ReRAM in their new product designs, including improvements to retention, endurance, and power consumption. Our collaboration with DB HiTek is commencing immediately, beginning with the transfer of our technology to the company\u2019s production fab. We are seeing increasingly strong market demand for Weebit ReRAM and expect to sign further commercial agreements, including many of the top-tier foundries and integrated device manufacturers as well as fabless design companies, in the coming months.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ki-Seog Cho, CEO, DB HiTek, said:<\/strong> \u201cWeebit ReRAM will provide customers using our 130nm BCD process with a very low-power, high-density and cost-effective NVM. Given Weebit\u2019s high-quality technology and unique combination of design and process engineering, we believe the technology transfer and qualification processes will proceed quickly. Looking ahead, we\u2019re delighted to see Weebit\u2019s strong commitment to continued roadmap innovation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Under the technology transfer and qualification agreement, Weebit and DB HiTek will immediately cooperate in transferring Weebit\u2019s embedded ReRAM technology to a DB HiTek production fab and then continue to qualify the technology towards volume production.<\/p>\n<p>The technology licensing agreement grants DB HiTek a non-exclusive license to manufacture Weebit ReRAM as embedded NVM in designs from customers globally. DB HiTek will add Weebit\u2019s memory module to its BCD 130nm Process Design Kit (PDK). DB HiTek customers can use the standard modules in the PDK or have modules customized for their needs. Weebit will receive manufacturing license fees, project use fees and royalties based on production volumes.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14204\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/F_DBH-Weebit-embedded-RRAM-ReRAM-NVM-IP-technology-company-for-semiconductors.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/F_DBH-Weebit-embedded-RRAM-ReRAM-NVM-IP-technology-company-for-semiconductors.png 2560w, https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/F_DBH-Weebit-embedded-RRAM-ReRAM-NVM-IP-technology-company-for-semiconductors-300x42.png 300w, https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/F_DBH-Weebit-embedded-RRAM-ReRAM-NVM-IP-technology-company-for-semiconductors-1024x142.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/F_DBH-Weebit-embedded-RRAM-ReRAM-NVM-IP-technology-company-for-semiconductors-768x106.png 768w, https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/F_DBH-Weebit-embedded-RRAM-ReRAM-NVM-IP-technology-company-for-semiconductors-1536x213.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.weebit-nano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/F_DBH-Weebit-embedded-RRAM-ReRAM-NVM-IP-technology-company-for-semiconductors-2048x284.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>-ENDS-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About DB HiTek <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Headquartered in\u00a0South Korea, DB HiTek Co., Ltd. is world leader in specialty foundry with a broad range of support services plus a robust portfolio of competitive process technologies that include Analog\/Power (BCDMOS), CMOS Image Sensor (CIS), Mixed-Signal, High Voltage CMOS, RF HRS\/SOI CMOS, Super Junction MOSFET technologies.
