With the more advanced SATA interface, the ATP Industrial Grade CFast is the ideal replacement for CompactFlash. The CFast is fully compliant with CFA's CFast specification version 2.0 with a SATA 6 Gb/s interface as well as back compatible with 3 / 1.5 Gb/s interface rate with MLC products.
The new CFast specification, a combination of CF and ATA serial Transport (AST), is recommended as new boot and storage device in embedded and industrial markets. These markets include military/aerospace, automation, marine navigation, embedded system, telecommunication equipment/networking and medical equipment where mission-critical data requires the highest level of reliability, durability, and data integrity.
The ATP CFast with PowerProtector guarantees reliable controller and lasting NAND flash operations with a backup power circuit during a power failure. By utilizing SLC NAND flash memory and Advanced Wear Leveling technology, the ATP Industrial Grade CFast has higher program/write endurance and a longer product life span.
The produce line implements ECC (Error Correction Code) and AutoRefresh technologies, which correct and monitor the error bit levels to ensure data integrity. Incorporating the S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) function, users are able to monitor various parameters of endurance and reliability. This information helps to predict storage failure with preventative action.
ATP PowerProtector technology guarantees reliable controller and lasting NAND flash operation with a back power circuit during a power outage. The standalone design of PowerProtector ensures a sufficient amount of backup power during any power abnormalities such as unstable voltages.
