Industrial-grade CompactFlash with highest reliability,
durability, and capacity enabled by proprietary controller,
patented memory-stacking, and rugged industrial design.
One of the most widely utilized flash memory products
in the world, STEC CompactFlash has become the card of
choice for discriminating customers requiring the highest
quality and reliability in a high-capacity yet compact
storage solution. STEC CF cards are available in Type
I format up to 8GB and Type II format up to 16GB, with
32GB available in the near future.
Engineered for quality, reliability, and compatibility,
STEC CF cards are ideal for industrial and embedded.
The card's state-of-the-art controller and firmware
design offers the highest flexibility to support a broad
range of customer applications, as well as future flash
technologies.
STEC also offers value-added services such as customized
form factors, testing, custom firmware, software imaging,
controlled bill of materials, customer-specific labeling
and serialization, and in-field support.
High performance is ensured via SLC NAND flash and state-of-the-art
controller technology. Additional customized features allow
for optimized performance in small sector write applications.
HIGHEST CAPACITY
COMPACTFLASH (CF)
STEC's patented IC Tower® Stacking Technology make
it possible to provide the highest capacity Compact Flash
in the industry, up to 16GB with 32GB supported in the near
Future.
HIGH RELIABILITY
COMPACTFLASH (CF)
STEC's proprietary state-of-the-art flash memory controllers
provide high data reliability and endurance. The built-in
ECC engine can detect up to 5-byte errors and correct up
to 4-byte errors, while sophisticated wear leveling algorithms
guarantee +2M Write/Erase Cycles. Based on SLC Flash and
high quality components, STEC Compact Flash solutions provide
an unparalleled MTBF of more than 8,000,000 hrs. In the
event of host system power loss, data integrity is further
assured via STEC's power-down data protection methodology
ensuring that critical data is not lost or corrupted.
COMPATIBILITY
COMPACTFLASH (CF)
For applications requiring an IDE
interface, compatibility is ensured by the Compact Flash
card's ATA and True IDE
support. The Compact Flash cards can also operate in legacy
PIO modes as well as DMA. Because STEC develops its own
controller and firmware, the Compact Flash cards can be
adapted to meet a wide variety of timing and software requirements
FORM FACTOR
COMPACTFLASH (CF)
Compact Flash cards can be used to interface with a host
system via the standard 50-pin CF connector or a standard
68-pin PCMCIA
connector when using the STEC PCMCIA
adaptor.
SECURITY
COMPACTFLASH (CF)
STEC's TotalDriveProtection
provides multiple levels of security including password
write-protection (enabled in hardware and software), read-protection,
secure partitioning, and custom ID strings to allow customers
to protect preloaded content from piracy.
STANDARD COMPLIANCE
COMPACTFLASH (CF)
STEC Compact Flash cards comply with CE requirements, FCC
standards, and have been approved by the UL organization.
The cards are also provided in full lead-free (RoHS-6) designs
for worldwide deployment.
