Description
The SanDisk CompactFlash Memory Card
(CF) products provide high capacity solid-state flash memory that
electrically complies with the Personal Computer Memory Card
International Association ATA (PC Card ATA) standard. (In Japan, the
applicable standards group is JEIDA.) The CompactFlash Memory Card
Series also supports a True IDE Mode that is electrically compatible
with an IDE disk drive. The original CF form factor card can be used
in any system that has a CF slot, and with a Type II PCMCIA adapter
can be used in any system that has a PCMCIA Type II or Type III
socket.
The CompactFlash Memory Cards use
SanDisk Flash memory, which was designed by SanDisk specifically for
use in mass storage applications. In addition to the mass storage
specific Flash memory chips, the CompactFlash Memory Cards include
an on-card intelligent controller that provides a high level
interface to the host computer.
This interface allows a host computer
to issue commands to the memory card to read or write blocks of
memory. The host addresses the card in 512 byte sectors. Each sector
is protected by a powerful Error Correcting Code (ECC).
