Structure of Product Name

Assignment of Symbols

  1. Device function
    The device functions are classified as follows:
    MD: DRAM
    MR: P2ROM, OTPROM
    MS: SRAM, VRAM, FIFO
    MG: Gate Array, Standard Cell
    ML: Logic
    MK: Module, Chip Set
    MT: Driver
  2. Device code
    The device code expresses a function specific to a device using a combination of numbers and alphanumeric characters.
  3. Character symbol
    The character symbol is added to indicate the modification of an existing product, to emphasize a specification that differs from the standard specification of an existing product, or to indicate a design standard.
  4. Derived code
    The device code indicates the speed ranking for DRAM products and is used as a derived code for logic products.
  5. Package symbol
    The package symbol expresses the type and lead bending profile of a package in two digits.
  6. Option classification symbol
    The option classification symbol is used to distinguish between the option symbol and the package symbol.
  7. Option code
    The option code indicates a symbol that identifies the specification of a product with an option.
