PCMCIA Flash Memory Card
General Description
Architecture Overview
WEDC’s PCMCIA Flash memory cards offer the
highest density, linear Flash solid state storage
solutions for code and data storage, high performance
disk emulation and execute in place (XIP) applications
in mobile PC and dedicated (embedded) equipment.
Packaged in a PCMCIA type I housing, each card
contains a connector, an array of Flash memories
packaged in TSOP packages and card control logic.
The card control logic provides the system interface
and controls the internal Flash memories. Combined
with file management software, such as Flash
Translation Layer (FTL), WEDC Flash cards provide
removable high-performance disk emulation.
The WEDC FLE series is based on AMD Flash
memories. The FLE series offers byte wide and word
wide operation, low power modes and Card
Information Structure (CIS) for easy identification of
card characteristics.
Note: Standard options include attribute memory.
Cards without attribute memory are available. Cards
are also available with or without a hardware write
protect switch.
WEDC’s FLE series is designed to support up to twenty (see Block diagram) 32Mb components, providing a wide
range of density options. Cards are based on the Am29F032 (32Mb) device for 5V only applications. The device
code for the Am29F032 is 41h and the manufacturer’s ID is 01h. Systems should be able to recognize these codes.
Cards utilizing 32Mb components provide densities ranging from 8MB to 64MB in 8MB increments.
In support of the PC Card (PCMCIA) standard for word wide access, devices are paired. Therefore, the Flash array
is structured in 64K word blocks. Write, read and block erase operations can be performed as either a word or byte
wide operation . By multiplexing A0, CE1# and CE2#, 8-bit hosts can access all data on data lines DQ0 - DQ7. The
FLE series cards conform with the PC Card Standard (formerly PCMCIA) and supported JEIDA, providing
electrical and physical compatibility. The PC Card form factor offers an industry standard pinout and mechanical
outline, allowing density upgrades without system design changes.
WEDC’s standard cards are shipped with WEDC’s silkscreen design. Cards are also available with blank housings
(no silkscreen). The blank housings are available in both a recessed (for label) and flat housing. Please contact your
WEDC sales representative for further information on Custom artwork.
