In today’s connected world, there’s no denying that smart devices need reliable security. If you’re looking for a cost-effective memory with authentication, you’ll find everything you need in Winbond’s W74M memory devices. Built to offer comprehensive protection for IoT devices, these non-volatile memory products equips with multi-layered authentication to add a robust layer of security to IoT devices.  The multi-layer authentication is accomplished with a “Challenge and Response” routine that involves the private root key and updated Monotonic Flash Counter value. Each W74M can provide authentication service up to four different hosts or systems to ensure that a product, consumables it uses, firmware it runs, accessories that support it and, the network nodes it connects to are not cloned or counterfeited.

Today’s embedded applications demand innovative non-volatile memory (NVM) solutions in order to meet the diverse requirement of connected platforms. As the largest supplier of serial NVMs, Winbond continues its broad application coverage by offering SpiStack, 1.2V flash, and Authentication memories. SpiStack combines the fast random access and XIP capability of NOR with the density and cost effectiveness of NAND in one small, low-pin-count SPI package. Such stack memory enables a system to have both fast boot as well as storage of large O.S. and application software. The recently introduced 1.2V flash delivers more than 1/3 reduction in energy consumption thus extending the battery life of coin cell operated IOT devices. The Authentication product portfolio provides scalable, secured memory solutions allowing system developers to utilize existing flash memory layout to harden system level security without additional hardware.
