Increasing healthcare costs, greater record keeping and networking requirements, the prevalence of chronic diseases, and aging populations are creating tremendous demand for fixed and portable medical devices to improve global healthcare in all three segments of the medical equipment market: clinical and diagnostic, imaging, and home-based applications.

Both DRAM and Flash based memory devices are an integral part of these devices.  However, different medical applications have different memory requirements.  For fixed clinical / diagnostic and imaging applications, the memory devices required are typically high-density, high-performance, high-bandwidth memory devices with a high degree of reliability.  In portable applications small and rugged memory devices capable of high reliability operation while being subjected to extreme temperatures and physical stress are essential.  Home-based applications require memory solutions such as DRAM modules and Flash cards that are highly cost sensitive while meeting the performance targets for these applications.

Swissbit offers three lines of products to match our customer’s performance, density, and cost requirements.  Use Swissbit’s Industrial line of memory product to fill your most demanding medical equipment storage needs especially when high reliability and/or extreme temperature are a concern.  Swissbit also offers its Chip-On-Board (COB) family of DRAM modules which incorporates direct bare die to printed circuit board attachment that allows higher density modules to be built in smaller formats.
