Introduction and usage specifications of IDE solid state drive

The ATA Flash Disk solid-state drive design can also be manufactured into a 3.5-inch desktop and server ATA/IDE solid-state drive, or a 2.5-inch notebook ATA/Mini IDE solid-state drive, a mobile solid-state drive, or a CF Card design basic plan. This solution is a Turnkey delivery model, which means it can be put into production and sold to end users immediately after delivery. It is fully compatible with the ATA standard IDE interface specification and can be applied to products that require very high reliability. The dual-channel design reaches 16-bit data transmission width, which is nearly twice as efficient as the traditional single-channel 8-bit data transmission width, and supports the connection of up to 64 SLC and MLC NAND flash media.

Product Introduction

This solution uses SST 55 series chips, mainly supporting SST55VD020. It integrates an ATA interface controller and built-in one or more NAND flash memories. Each solid-state drive produced has a unique 20-byte ID serial number to ensure data security. Users can customize the storage protection zone. There are also security features such as write-protect pins for anti-virus, password protection and clear commands. It is not afraid of vibration and can be used as a sturdy and durable memory for various electronic products. The extremely low power consumption brings ultra-low operating temperature. The semiconductor storage technology is completely silent without any mechanical movement, eliminating the operating noise caused by traditional hard drives.

Use this ATA solid-state drive as a storage component for various electronic products, such as: desktop computers, servers, laptops, mobile hard drives, music players, mobile devices, industrial computers, handheld terminals, and handheld data collection Scanners, recording equipment, video equipment, surveillance equipment, set-top boxes, PMP, MP4, digital players, digital photo frames, MID, mobile network equipment, medical equipment, POS machines, cash registers, base stations, GPS navigation equipment...
