Technical support and solution optimization cases.
Case Study #001 | SATA SSD Performance Drop Analysis
Technical Inquiry
A customer reported reduced write performance after a 72-hour
burn-in test on a 128GB SATA SSD and requested technical verification.
Technical Analysis
Our engineers reproduced the customer's test environment and
confirmed the SSD hardware operated normally. The performance
change was identified as firmware behavior under intensive write conditions.
Strategic Action
Returned samples, new production units, and comparison devices
were evaluated to verify the root cause under identical test conditions.
Result & Conclusion
The investigation confirmed the performance change was firmware-related
rather than a hardware defect, providing the customer with verified
technical guidance for product validation.
Engineering Value
System-level validation, firmware behavior analysis, and root cause
investigation for industrial storage applications.

Case Study #002 | eMMC PCB Fanout Optimization and Validation
Technical Inquiry
A client requested confirmation on whether 'Not Connected' (NC)
pins on an eMMC BGA footprint could be shorted to adjacent lines
to simplify their PCB routing.
Technical Analysis
We verified that the specified NC pins are internally disconnected,
confirming they can be safely used for routing without affecting device operation.
Strategic Action
During the layout review, we proactively identified a missing
Data Strobe (DS) connection for HS400 performance and supplied
verified samples to ensure seamless prototype testing.
Result & Conclusion
The client successfully integrated the samples into their manufacturing
process, ensuring both design flexibility and optimized performance
for their final application.
