Phison Electronics (8299.TW), industry leader in flash controller and NAND solutions, will be displaying its latest flash technologies at COMPUTEX 2018 in Taipei, Taiwan. In the private showroom Phison will demonstrate the PS5012-E12 PCIe Gen 3x4 NVMe SSD controller, which is now available for customer sampling.
PS5012-E12, the ultra-high performance SSD controller, delivers best in class speeds over 3400 MB/s sequential read and over 3000 MB/s sequential write, with random 4K up to 600,000 IOPS read and 600,000 IOPS write performance. The controller supports up to 8TB and is available in the M.2, U.2, and AIC form factors.
With the E12 reaching close to the theoretical bandwidth of 4GB/s for PCIe Gen 3x4, it is the perfect solution for the gaming and high-end PC market. The innovative CoXprocessor 2.0 allows the E12 to gain an impressive advantage in sequential write performance that cannot be matched. It also allows for an unprecedented 600,000 IOPs random 4k read / write performance for a client SSD.
“The PS5012-E12 is our 2nd Generation PCIe Gen3x4 NVMe flagship controller.” said KS Pua, Chairman and CEO of Phison. “We incorporated our latest and greatest engineering technologies, from the CoXprocessor 2.0, LDPC 3.0, and our DSP (Digital Signal Processor) 2.0. It will enable our partners to provide the most suitable PCIe SSD to the gamers and PC enthusiast who seek for the highest performing systems. This is without a doubt, Phison’s best SSD controller to date.”
The controller utilizes an advanced 28nm process technology. Equipped with an ultra-compact and low-power LDPC 3.0 ECC engine designed for the latest 3D TLC and upcoming QLC flash memory. The controller can support up to 8 channel and 32 chip enables (CE).
PS5012-E12DC, the enterprise optimized solution of PS5012, is tuned for maximize endurance, low latency, and sustained performance consistency, targeting the enterprise data center and cloud environments. This enterprise controller is set for customer sampling in early Q3, 2018.
Phison will be showcasing its latest flash technologies at COMPUTEX Taipei June 5-9, 2018. In the showcase will be the E12 Client SSD, a preview of the upcoming PS3112-S12, a SATA III SSD controller, a UFS card that delivers SSD performance for mobile devices, and ThunderboltTM 3 external SSDs that now released by several branded partners. Also to address the emerging IoT and AI market trend, Phison will showcase an SD/microSD card solution made specifically for video surveillance, and launch its latest fingerprint-secured USB flash drive.

Phison and Kingston Collaborate on NVMe SSD Controller to Accelerate into the Next SSD-era
Hsinchu, Taiwan - December 6, 2017 – Phison Electronics (8299.TW), a leading provider of NAND flash solutions including removable flash, managed NAND, and SSD products, today announced combined SSD controller shipments to Kingston Technology (“Kingston”) exceeding 18 million units. This achievement shows Phison’s strong commitment to R&D investment in collaboration with Kingston to build a wide portfolio of SSD products. Since 2012, Phison has delivered more than 10 SSD controller solutions to Kingston®consisting of PATA, SATA, and PCIe. The latest duo of PCIe 3.0 NVMe controllers, E7 and E8, will continue to drive the next wave of SSD evolution for Kingston’s SSD line as the massive transition from SATA to PCIe interface continues in 2018.
“Phison's long-term partnership with Kingston Technology has enabled both companies to have a mutual and consistent understanding of the memory industry," said KS Pua, Chairman and CEO of Phison. “As the 2016 economy recovered, the companies worked closely together to solidify their industry leadership in the SSD market as they continue to expand their market share through 2017, in the midst of a flash shortage situation. SSD controller chip unit shipments this year more than doubled compared to last year. Looking forward, the cooperation between the two companies will be even closer to create new business opportunities and drive further revenue and profit growth".
Phison and Kingston also share common interests in developing and marketing enterprise-level storage. Phison’s S10 controller powers Kingston’s DC400 SSDs, featuring flexible over-provisioning and consistent performance. In 2015, Phison and Kingston co-invested in Liqid Inc, an enterprise start-up specializing in enterprise storage and composable infrastructure for the enterprise market. In 2016, Kingston debuted the DCP1000, the company’s flagship high-performance enterprise SSD, equipped with Liqid’s proprietary RAID technology and Phison’s E7 controller. At its launch, the DCP1000 boasted best-in-class read and write performance of 6800 MB/s and 1.25 million IOPS, making it the world’s fastest NVMe add-in-card SSD.
“Phison and Kingston have enjoyed a close working relationship on many levels for over a decade,” said Nate Steffens, vice president of Flash memory, Kingston. “Their technology has enabled us to be one of the market leaders for solid-state drives, USB drives and embedded solutions. With their continued support, Kingston will remain one of the top players now and in the future.”
Phison and Kingston’s partnership extends beyond SSDs. In November of 2010, Phison and Kingston identified the massive shift from removable cards to NAND embedded in mobile phone devices and joined forces to form Kingston Solutions, Inc. (“KSI”). This KSI joint venture later expanded to include Toshiba, Micron, and Mediatek. The marriage has proven to be successful, as KSI has now become a significant solution provider to the mobile, IoT, and embedded market, with a wide range of product offerings, including eMCP, ePOP, eMMC, and UFS.
In jointly celebrating Kingston’s 30th anniversary, it is with pride that we relive some of Kingston’s and Phison’s milestone joint product innovations:
- World’s largest USB Flash Drive (Data Traveler GT 2TB), 2017
- World’s fastest enterprise SSD (DCP1000), 2016
