Product Overview
The Intel Value Series 100 Flash Memory
Cards offer a low-cost removable solid-state storage solution for code and
data, as well as for high-performance disk emulation. They are ideally suited
for applications in mobile PCs and dedicated embedded applications. Combined with
file management software, such as FTL, it provides high-performance disk emulation
for rugged environments and applications. In addition, the flash memory card is
well suited for data transfer applications on both PC and embedded systems platforms.
Product Description
Manufactured with Intel's FlashFile™ memory, the Intel Value Series 100 Flash
Memory Cards take advantage of a revolutionary architecture that provides innovative
capabilities, automated write/erase algorithms, reliable operation and very high
speed read/write solutions for solid-state storage applications. These flash
memory cards enhance applications through their symmetrically blocked architecture,
extended MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) and 5V operation. The flash memory
cards can be used as a simple x16 linear array of flash devices. The PC Card form
factor offers an industry-standard pinout, removable linear flash memory and the
ability to upgrade system memory and software without changing board layout.
Each memory card consists of a PCMCIA connector and an array of 28F008SA flash
memories in TSOP packaging. Two 28F008SA devices in parallel provide the lower
and upper bytes for a 16-bit access. The on-board charge pump consistently provides
12.0 volts to the flash array for write and erase operations in an environment
where only a 5V supply is available.
The memory card interface supports the PC Card standard, supported by PCMCIA
and JEIDA 68-pin card format. The Value Series 100 card meets all PC Card Type
1 mechanical specifications.
