  • At least in our Zune, Toshiba is the NAND flash supplier, and it's in two separate packages. We are told that the 16 GB version has one package of Hynix NAND.

  • The long rectangular chip near the center of the board is the Phison Electronics PS8006 NAND controller.

  • Above the dock connector is an Atmel 8 kilobit AT88SC0808CA CryptoMemory EEPROM chip.

  • On the left side (with the sine wave logo) is a Wolfson Micro WM8352 audio codec.

  • As evidenced by the writing on the dock connector, the Zune is actually manufactured by Foxconn, the same company that produces iPods for Apple.
