Dedikeret produktionsfacilitet til tyndfilms hukommelser er åbnet

Det norske teknologifirma, InkTek, har sammen med firmaets koreanske produktionspartner åbnet dedikeret produktionslinie for tyndfilms hukommelser (in english).

Thin Film Electronics ASA ('Thinfilm') is a publicly-listed Norwegian technology company with its head office in Oslo, product development in Linköping, Sweden, and sales offices in San Francisco, USA, and Tokyo, Japan.

Thinfilm is a pioneer in the field of printed electronics, and provides fully-printed non-volatile, rewritable memory for applications in toys & games, logistics, sensor, and ID systems.

The company has just announced that its memory production partner InkTec, headquartered in Ansan, South Korea, has opened a new dedicated production facility for Thinfilm Memory.


Several leading toy manufacturers have purchased the Thinfilm Toy Development Kit and are evaluating specific toy concepts based on Thinfilm Memory.

- We have established a supply chain, with InkTec as our main production partner, and are ready to meet the demand for low-cost high-volume consumer applications, says Davor Sutija, Thinfilm CEO.

Thinfilm is also seeing increased interest from other industries.
- We are being approached by leading companies in several additional markets, for applications such as promotional cards, online monetization, and secure documents, Sutija continues.

In 2009, Thinfilm and InkTec were the first in the world to produce polymer memories at large scale using roll-to-roll printing. The new, upgraded facility has a production capacity of 10 million tags of Thinfilm Memory per month, and will support production of passive array memory.

Thinfilm and InkTec will also work on the development of addressable memories, which combine memory and logic in an integrated device.
Thinfilm Memory products include:
• Thinfilm Memory: 20-bit single-line memories are commercially available. Suitable for consumer applications, such as toys and games and info-kiosks.

• Thinfilm Passive Array Memory: 40-bit memories are in test production, and engineering samples will be available later this year. Higher density memories are under development, with planned production in 2012 (up to 121 bits per memory array). Meets the needs of secure archiving, ticketing, and other applications that demand encryption or user-programmed stored IDs.

• Thinfilm Addressable Memory:  Prototypes will be ready during 2011. Transfer to production is expected in 2012 (up to 128 bits). Enables printed systems, such as ID tags, sensor tags, disposable price labels, and other smart tags.
