Silicon Storage Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: SSTI) designs, manufactures and markets a wide range of diverse memory and non-memory products. The company today announced development collaboration with Freescale Semiconductor that will meet the latest industry demands.

Freescale Semiconductor designs and manufactures embedded semiconductors for the automotive, consumer, industrial, networking and wireless markets. SSTI’s SPI Serial Flash will assist Freescale’s MC1322x Platform in collaboration with IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee Protocols to deliver 20-year, battery-supported wireless connectivity.

“We designed our PiP products for IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee protocols knowing that our customers’ performance and power consumption requirements would be demanding,” Brett Black, manager of Freescale’s Wireless Connectivity Operation stated in the press release. “SST’s SPI serial flash technology played a key role in our successful delivery of one of the industry’s lowest power, highest performance solution for IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee protocols.”

The Freescale MC1322x is part of a suite of products that offers one of the highest performing solutions for IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee protocols. SST’s SuperFlash technology is a single-supply voltage that allows for read and write operations.

“ZigBee technology is a rapid growth area in the wireless space and SST’s low-power SPI serial flash technology enables ZigBee-powered devices to operate for years at a time,” said Cary Wong, senior manager, segment marketing for SST. “Coupling our SST25WF010 device with Freescale’s high performance, low power MC1322x family gives ZigBee system designers the ideal development platform.”
