On August 6th, US local time, the annual Flash Memory Summit was held as scheduled at the Santa Clara Conference Center in Silicon Valley. The summit brought together leading technology companies and industry experts at home and abroad. FMS2019 brings together hot topics in NAND pellets, controllers, NVMe, all-flash arrays, distributed, hyper-converged, database, big data applications, etc. to discuss the future of flash technology and applications! Yixin Technology brought the new generation product STAR2000 to the US flash memory summit again. FMS also witnessed the breakthrough and transformation of Starblaze!
2019 core journey
Starblaze Technology was established in 2015, and the company has successively launched STAR1000 and STAR1000P NVMe SSD controllers. The STAR1000C-based consumer-grade NVMe SSD solution has been mass-produced and shipped together with KingSpec Jinshengwei, a well-known brand of South China's solid-state hard drive, to jointly release a 2TB solid-state hard drive with a localized PCI-E controller. STAR1200C, a consumer-grade solution based on STAR1000P, and OC SSD, a data center solution, have been jointly developed by many well-known domestic and foreign manufacturers while gaining customer recognition.

Xue Licheng, chief architect of Yixin, proposed the error recovery method suitable for QLC from the perspectives of Read Retry, Soft Bit Read and RAID for the high error rate of QLC flash. This not only effectively extends the service life of QLC flash, but also effectively Reduce the time for error recovery.
