Redefining the NOR Flash Memory Industry
Meet Spansion® – Enabling a More Mobile, Digital, Media-Rich Global Society
Spansion is the largest company exclusively focused on Flash memory solutions. Flash memory can be found in nearly every electronic device- in cell phones, cars, printers, networking equipment, set-top boxes, high-definition TVs, games and other consumer electronics. As people continue to demand more multimedia content in their homes, at work and on the go, and as electronic products become increasingly complex, the amount of Flash memory in electronic devices will continue to grow.
With a primary focus on the integrated Flash memory market, our solutions are incorporated into electronic products from Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), including the top ten handset, consumer electronics and automotive OEMs around the world.
Spansion aspires to be a different kind of Flash memory company. While the memory industry has operated primarily as a commodity industry with little differentiation among products, and competition based mostly on supply and demand, Spansion has the vision to completely redefine what it means to be a Flash memory company. We intend to deliver more genuine value in all aspects of our business – from technology, products and solutions to the way we do business and interact with our customers to bring them complete customer satisfaction. Our focus on operational excellence and efficient manufacturing capabilities means we can deliver greater efficiency to customers. Our patented MirrorBit® technology forms the foundation for enabling cost-effective and added-value Flash memory solutions optimized for both code execution and data storage. And we offer total Flash memory solutions that incorporate software, hardware, packaging and are fully verified and compatible with third-party silicon, as well as innovative new solutions that combine logic and MirrorBit Flash memory on a single-chip. The recent acquisition of Saifun expands Spansion's product portfolio, and enables Spansion’s immediate entry into the technology licensing business, significantly expanding Spansion’s market opportunity.
By redefining the NOR Flash memory industry through value-added solutions, our goal is to truly impact the ability for our customers to innovate, and thereby accelerate the proliferation and accessibility of rich digital content throughout the world.
Spansion, publicly traded on NASDAQ [SPSN], was previously a joint venture of AMD and Fujitsu and draws upon a rich history of technological innovation and market leadership that dates back to the early days of the Flash memory market. Spansion has approximately 8,900 employees around the globe focused on enabling our customers to innovate more quickly, more efficiently and more broadly.
