Description
Atmel’s Flash Memory Card provides the highest system level performance for data and file storage solutions to the portable PC market segment. Data files and applications programs can be stored on the AT5FC004. This allows OEM manufacturers of portable system to eliminate the weight, power consumption and reliability issues associated with electro-mechanical disk-based systems. The AT5FC004 requires a single voltage power supply for total system operation. No batteries are needed for data retention due to its Flash-based technology. Since no high voltage (12 V) is required to perform any write operation, the AT5FC004 is suitable for the emerging "mobile" personal systems.
