+\subsubsection{Flash-Memory Types}
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\frametitle{Overview}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item NOR
+\item NAND
+\item Single- and Multi-Level Cells
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\frametitle{NOR}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item direct addressable
+\item usable like RAM/ROM (direct attach to CPU)
+\item pros:
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item fault tolerant
+  \item high write-rate for small data
+  \end{itemize}
+\item cons:
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item low data density (multiple gates per bit)
+  \item low write-rate for large data
+  \item cost
+  \end{itemize}
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\frametitle{NAND}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item matrix organization (blocks and pages)
+\item addressing via controller logic
+\item pros:
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item cost
+  \item high data density (1 to many bits per gate)
+  \item high read-/write-rate for large data
+  \item no layout change in hardware for more capacity
+  \end{itemize}
+\item cons:
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item large effort for extensive Error Correction Codes (ECC)
+  \end{itemize}
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\frametitle{Data density}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Single-Level Cells (SLC)
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item ca. 100,000 write/delete cycles
+  \item pros:
+    \begin{itemize}
+    \item robust
+    \item low Error Correction Code (ECC) effort
+    \end{itemize}
+  \item cons:
+    \begin{itemize}
+    \item low data density
+    \end{itemize}
+  \end{itemize}
+\end{itemize}
+\pause
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Multi-Level Cells (MLC)
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item ca. 3,000 to 10,000 write/delete cycles
+  \item pros:
+    \begin{itemize}
+    \item high data density
+    \end{itemize}
+  \item cons:
+    \begin{itemize}
+    \item expensive Error Correction Codes (ECC) like BCH
+    \item wear prone
+    \item low read-rate
+    \end{itemize}
+  \end{itemize}
