4DS, Inc. is a privately held US corporation and a subsidiary of 4D-S Pty, Ltd. an Austrialian corporation. 4DS, Inc. is based in Fremont, Calif., Silicon Valley and is focused on developing and marketing non-volatile semiconductor memories that are high capacity, high performance and low cost.
4DS has assembled a seasoned materials development team embellished by high profile partners and a seasoned product release team with proven track record.
4DS is addressing a market estimated at 76.3 billion dollars by 2019 according to industry watcher iSuppli. The Flash memory industry is rapidly approaching a capacity barrier as Flash memory scalability is reaching its limits posing opportunity for 4DS. Recent efforts by the Flash industry has focused on accomplishing increased capacity through the next generation of 3D flash technologies, that is to say, 3D memory through multi-memory layers by stacking chips. By comparison, 4DS's approach enables either a multi-layer memory in-situ or a CMOS/SOC device with multi-layer memory "piggy-backed" on-board.
