SST58LD008

SST58LD008 SST's ATA-Disk Chip (ADC) is a low cost, high performance, embedded flash memory data storage system. This product is well suited for solid state mass storage applications offering new and expanded functionality while enabling cost effective designs. ATA-based solid state mass storage technology is widely used in such products as portable and desktop computers, digital cameras, music players, handheld data collection scanners, cellular phones, PCS phones, PDAs, handy terminals, personal communicators, advanced two-way pagers, audio recorders, monitoring devices, and set-top boxes.ADC provides complete IDE Hard Disk Drive functionality and compatibility. ADC is a perfect solution to consumer electronic products requiring smaller, but more reliable and cost effective data storage. The ADC is read and written to using a single power supply of 5.0V or 3.3V and is available in 8 to 192 MByte capacities.

The SST58LD008 is a solid state disk drive that is designed to replace conventional IDE hard disk drive and uses standard ATA/IDE protocol. It has built in microcontroller and file management firmware that communicates with ATA standard interfaces; therefore, the ADC does not require additional or proprietary software such as Flash File System (FFS) and Memory Technology Driver (MTD) software.

The SST58LD008 is designed to work at either 5V or 3.3V. The pin assignment is designed to match existing IDE signal traces on the motherboard. It uses standard ATA driver that is part of all major OS such as Windows 95/98/2000/NT/CE, MAC, UNIX, etc.
