Netlist Inc
Netlist, Inc. engages in the design, manufacture and sale of memory subsystems for the computing and communications markets. The company is headquartered in Irvine, California and currently employs 120 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2006-11-30. The firm operates in the design and manufacture of memory subsystems for the server, computing and communications markets. Its products include load-reduced dual in-line memory module (LRDIMM) based on its distributed buffer architecture, which has been adopted by the industry for DDR4 LRDIMM. The company also provides NAND flash memory (NAND flash) to the memory channel with its NVvault non-volatile dual in-line memory modules (NVDIMM) using software-intensive controllers and merging dynamic random access memory integrated circuits (DRAM ICs) and NAND flash to solve data bottleneck and data retention. The firm also offers storage-class memory products called HybriDIMM to address the growing need for real-time analytics in Big Data applications, in-memory databases, computing and data storage solutions.
