A new type of non-volatile memory chip has been introduced that can retain configuration settings and critical data even when power is completely removed. This innovation eliminates the need for constant power or backup batteries in many applications, significantly improving reliability and reducing power consumption in IoT, industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics.

New chip that retains settings even without power
Traditional solutions often rely on EEPROM, flash memory with backup capacitors, or batteries. The new chip removes these limitations, offering true “set-and-forget” functionality for configuration parameters, calibration data, and system settings.
This technology is particularly valuable in applications where power supply is unreliable or where ultra-low power operation is essential, enabling more robust and energy-efficient electronic systems.
