Phison's new SSD controller sips a mere 2.3W and runs at 14.7 GB/s, addressing PCIe 5.0's power concerns — more affordable and power-saving PCIe 5.0 drives are coming for laptops and gaming handhelds

Phison E37T SSD.

Phison’s SSD controllers already power many of the world’s best SSDs, and the company is set to extend its industry dominance. The new PS5037-E37T PCIe 5.0 SSD controller delivers blazing speed and remarkable power efficiency—engineered specifically for compact devices like laptops and gaming handhelds.

While Phison’s class-leading PS5028-E28 controller set the benchmark for raw performance, the new E37T takes a different approach by prioritizing exceptional power efficiency and affordability—without sacrificing impressive speeds. Manufactured by TSMC using an advanced 6nm process node, the E37T features a cutting-edge DRAM-less architecture and supports four NAND channels with transfer rates up to 4,800 MT/s. This innovative design enables the E37T to deliver a remarkable 38% performance boost over previous-generation PCIe 5.0 DRAM-less controllers, such as the PS5031-E31T.
