WinSystems' Industrial CompactFlash Cards Triple Their Speed

September 10, 2009, Arlington, TX - WinSystems today introduces their new line of dual channel CompactFlash (CF) cards designed for speed, durability, and extended temperature operation. They are perfect for high-performance, embedded systems applications requiring high reliability and high tolerance to shock, vibration, humidity, and altitude, plus -40° to +85°C temperature operation. These Type 1 devices are well suited for rugged and mission-critical applications including medical, transportation, industrial, communications, military/aerospace, security and surveillance. Five storage sizes are available from 1GB to 16GB. The CompactFlash cards will operate up to an altitude of 80,000 feet. They can withstand up to 2000Gs of shock and 16.3G (rms) of vibration. FEATURES The ultra DMA burst transfer rate is 66MB/s to and from the CF card. Sustained sequential Writes are 16MB/s and Reads are 37 MB/s. These faster card-to-computer transfer rates dramatically reduce the time needed to store or retrieve digital data from non volatile memory. Flash memory power-down logic and Write protection is included to prevent data corruption during power loss by completing the last Write after power loss to the device. These RoHS-compliant CF cards support a dual 3.3V/5V interface for system flexibility and will work with single board computers (SBCs), instruments, cameras or any other manufacturer's computer that has a CF socket. They require very little power and will enter an automatic power down during wait periods. PRICING AND PRODUCT AVAILABILITY WinSystems offers in-stock product availability.
