Infineon SEMPER™ NOR Flash Memory strengthens data‑center server management; qualified for ASPEED AST2700 BMCs

Technology news

Jul 30, 2026

Munich, Germany – 30 July 2026 – Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) announced that its SEMPER™ NOR Flash Memory has been qualified for ASPEED Technology’s AST2700 Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) and is now included in the AST2700 Approved Vendor List (AVL). As firmware storage for the BMC, the SEMPER NOR Flash supports the server management infrastructure that enables resilient, secure operation and helps keep systems available and protected. For hyperscalers and server OEMs, the qualification provides a validated, design‑ready memory solution for AST2700‑based systems, reducing design risk and simplifying bill‑of‑materials decisions.

As AI, cloud, and enterprise workloads grow, reliable server operation depends on more than compute capacity. BMCs provide out‑of‑band management and operate independently of the host CPU, remaining active even when the server is powered off. They continuously monitor system health, manage power sequencing, support secure boot, and enable remote access, secure over-the-network firmware updates, and system recovery. The NOR Flash connected to the BMC stores the critical management firmware that enables these functions, verifies its integrity at every power cycle, and supports recovery mechanisms.

Infineon’s SEMPER NOR Flash delivers the reliability, security, and performance required by data center applications. Designed for high-endurance operation, it provides fast read performance over standard SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) and integrates CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) and ECC (Error Correcting Code) for data integrity. These capabilities are essential for robust BMC firmware storage and reliable operation at scale. As a market leader in NOR flash and specialty memory, Infineon combines a resilient, diversified supply chain with a broad, differentiated portfolio to serve the demanding requirements of industrial, automotive, and compute applications.

ASPEED Technology is the global leader in the BMC market. The AST2700 is ASPEED’s eighth-generation BMC, built on 12 nm process technology and delivering advanced management capabilities, enhanced security, and greater system integration than previous generations.
