NOVeA
Licensee Deliverables. Licensee agrees to provide Licensor early access to the technical information for use by Licensor solely in connection with developing the Compilers as set forth in this Agreement.
NOVeA, which can be reprogrammed numerous times, is designed for integration into system-on-chip (SoC) applications. It is the first non-volatile, electrically alterable embedded memory solution that can be produced using standard logic processes. Most embedded non-volatile memory solutions require special process technology that adds steps and photomasks to fabrication, which increases costs and delivery time. Since NOVeA can be manufactured by using a standard logic process, additional process steps and masks are not necessary, thereby reducing costs and delivery time. By employing sub-micron geometries, NOVeA technology can help reduce overall system size, lower power consumption and increase performance.
