Cavendish Kinetics’ Nanomech-based activities are focused on the development and qualification of Non Volatile Memory technology which originated at the famous Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge University.

Nanomech™, using standard CMOS process technology, enables the implementation of unique storage functions with ultra low-power, high speed read/write characteristics combined with an ability to continue to fully function (read and write) at temperatures up to 200°C and are completely insensitive to radiation. Compared to current technology, Nanomech storage devices offer 200x increased write performance while consuming 50x to 100x less power. The ultra low power of Nanomech™ devices is based on the ability to program them at native voltages (e.g. 1.0V for a 130nm process). These devices are fully scalable to below 45nm.

Cavendish Kinetics is an IP company; it delivers its products in the format of an IP package which is composed of the embedded process module, a set of Design IP packages and a service organization that will help install and qualify the embedded process module and supporting design IP at the customers’ fabrication facility. This combination guarantees the customer an easy integration path, full access to the combined expertise of the Cavendish team and the shortest time to market for the products that will use Cavendish Kinetics’ IP. All products are demonstrated first on an industrial qualified CMOS process.
