The CompactFlash solutions that never cease

Posted

CompactFlash memory solutions were the A lister in their field. Nowadays, CompactFlash is unrivalled in big game industrial and embedded complex applications. As some elements were recently terminated, the vitality of these memory components for the industrial world just increased. It seems, that the so called “tech of yesterday” is still the tech of today.

“But it’s all right, I’m Jumpin’ Jack Flash. It’s a gas, gas, gas”. Some things are iconic. Spread like a flash of lighting and stay with the world forever, it seems. Such as these immortal slogans from a rock band that defined an era. In the world of memory solutions, the CompactFlash (CF) memory tech is still relevant than ever before. It defined an time in the world. As a result, many of the industrial applications and apparatuses in the industrial fields still rely on the CF mind frame. Such as automation equipment, medical devices, and transportation infrastructure. Tech that requires highly reliable, highly durable, proven, stable and long-term available form factors than cutting edge performance. Even if the personal customers’ focus has drifted elsewhere.

The situation of such big industrial grade constructions has become more dire with the termination of the Hyperstone F9 controller. An unparalleled element in many a CF cards’ designs. As a result, Swissbit, a memory and encryption tech visionary, has responded to this acute need for CF memory tech. The company, a long-lasting strategic partner of E.D.E. Electronics in all manners of storage and protection solution, is committed for the safe, constant supply chain operability for those in need of Flash-based memory.

Although taking it off the market, Swissbit has answered the call to fill this gap by continuing to manufacture the controller and supply CF cards equipped the controller. Consequently ensuring product continuity, and continued manufacture operations. In addition, these CF Cards were developed with strong focus on quality, reliability, robustness and longevity. The CF Series C-350 and C-500 are offered in temperature ranges of 0°C to 70°C aimed for commercial, and from -40°C to 85°C for industrial grade operations.

Additionally, these specific CF solutions feature several unique advantages tailored for industrial needs. these include a frozen Bill of Materials (BOM) aimed for constant component sourcing without unexpected changes; no End-of-Life (EoL) policies as long as there is a market demand; Longevity service for selected products in support of long-term deployment; A stable supply chain.

In continuation, all production and rigorous testing processes are made in-house. Thus, making customer tailored solution possible. Alongside, in-house expertise to address any of the customer’s needs, cybersecure firmware and anti-manipulation management against tampering or unauthorized changes.
