Report Date: [Current Date] Subject: Phison PS2251-09 NAND Flash Controller Classification: Public / Technical Analysis 1. Executive Summary The Phison PS2251-09 (marketed as the PS2309 ) is a cost-optimized, single-channel USB 3.0 NAND flash controller. It is primarily found in entry-level to mid-range USB 3.0 thumb drives from brands such as Kingston (DataTraveler 100 G3/G4), Corsair, and ADATA.
Unlike its predecessor (PS2251-07, which supported dual-channel), the PS2309 is a controller. This significantly impacts its maximum theoretical throughput (~100–150 MB/s read, ~20–60 MB/s write) and makes it highly sensitive to the type of NAND flash used (TLC vs. MLC vs. QLC). phison ps2251-09
