Rev. 1.0 Compact Flash 6 series AP-CFxxxxLAXS-XXXXXX 1. General Description Apacer’s value-added Industrial CompactFlash Card offers high performance, high reliability and powerefficient storage. Regarding standard compliance, this CompactFlash Card complies with CompactFlash specification revision 6.0, supporting transfer modes up to Programmed Input Output (PIO) Mode 6, Multiword Direct Memory Access (DMA) Mode 4, Ultra DMA Mode 6, and PCMCIA Ultra DMA Mode 5. For power efficiency, this industrial CompactFlash card supports some power smart design mechanisms such as Power-On-Reset, voltage regulator for output voltage adjustments and power failure protection, as well as the automatic sleep and wake-up feature. Apacer’s value-added CFC provides complete PCMCIA – ATA functionality and compatibility. Apacer ‘s CompactFlash technology is designed for applications in Point of Sale (POS) terminals, telecom, IP-STB, medical instruments, surveillance systems, industrial PCs and handheld applications such as the new generation of Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) cameras. 1.1 Performance-Optimized Controller The CompactFlash Card Controller translates standard CF signals into flash media data and control signals. 1.1.1 Power Management The controller unit of this ComactFlash is built with power management design that optimizes power utilization and voltage flow. It enhances the power efficiency of CompactFlash Card Controller by employing advanced circuit regulator technology. 1.1.2 RAM The controller is implemented with RAM as a data process to optimize data transfer between the host and the flash media. 1.1.3 Error Correction Code (ECC) The CompactFlash card is programmed with BCH Error Detection Code (EDC) and Error Correction Code (ECC) algorithms capable of correcting up to 72 random bits in 1KB bytes data. High performance is achieved through hardware-based error detection and correction. 1.2 Intelligent Endurance Design 1.2.1 Wear-leveling algorithms Flash memory devices differ from Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) in terms of how blocks are utilized. For HDDs, when a change is made to stored data, like erase or update, the controller mechanism on HDDs will perform overwrites on blocks. Unlike HDDs, flash blocks cannot be overwritten and each P/E cycle wears down the lifespan of blocks gradually. Repeatedly program/erase cycles performed on the same memory cells will eventually cause some blocks to age faster than others. This would bring flash storages to their end of service term sooner. Wear leveling is an important mechanism that level out the wearing of blocks so that the wearing-down of blocks can be almost evenly distributed. This will increase the lifespan of SSDs. Commonly used wear leveling types are Static and Dynamic. 3 © 2013 Apacer Technology Inc. Rev. 1.0 Compact Flash 6 series AP-CFxxxxLAXS-XXXXXX 1.2.2 S.M.A.R.T. Technology S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, an open standard allowing disk drives to automatically monitor their own health and report potential problems. It protects the user from unscheduled downtime by monitoring and storing critical drive performance and calibration parameters. Ideally, this should allow taking proactive actions to prevent impending drive failure. Apacer SMART feature adopts the standard SMART command B0h to read data from the drive. When the Apacer SMART Utility running on the host, it analyzes and reports the disk status to the host before the device is in critical condition. 1.2.3 Flash Block Management Current production technology is unable to guarantee total reliability of NAND flash memory array. When a flash memory device leaves factory, it comes with a minimal number of initial bad blocks during production or out-of-factory as there is no currently known technology that produce flash chips free of bad blocks. In addition, bad blocks may develop during program/erase cycles. When host performs program/erase command on a block, bad block may appear in Status Register. Since bad blocks are inevitable, the solution is to keep them in control. Apacer flash devices are programmed with ECC, block mapping technique and S.M.A.R.T to reduce invalidity or error. Once bad blocks are detected, data in those blocks will be transferred to free blocks and error will be corrected by designated algorithms. 1.2.4 Power Failure Management Power Failure Management plays a crucial role when experiencing unstable power supply. Power disruption may occur when users are storing data into the SSD. In this urgent situation, the controller would run multiple write-to-flash cycles to store the metadata for later block rebuilding. This urgent operation requires about several milliseconds to get it done. At the next power up, the firmware will perform a status tracking to retrieve the mapping table and resume previously programmed NAND blocks to check if there is any incompleteness of transmission. 4 © 2013 Apacer Technology Inc.

Cylinders, heads or sectors are not applicable for these capacities. Only LBA addressing applies Notes: 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes; 1 sector = 512 bytes. LBA count addressed in the table above indicates total user storage capacity and will remain the same throughout the lifespan of the device. However, the total usable capacity of the SSD is most likely to be less than the total physical capacity because a small portion of the capacity is reserved for device maintenance usages. 4.2 Performance Performances of the CF cards are listed in Table 4-2 Table 4-2: Performance specifications Capacity 8 GB 16 GB 32 GB 64 GB 128 GB Sustained read (MB/s) 110 105 110 110 110 Sustained write (MB/s) 24 23 34 55 60 Performance Notes: performance may vary depending on flash configurations or host system settings. 4.3 Environmental Specifications Environmental specification of the Compact Flash Card series (CFC) follows the MIL-STD-810F.
