Viking Technology introduces Industrial CFast Serialized Compact Flash Card. The CFast is a NAND flash card utilizing a Serial ATA interface packaged in the Compact Flash form factor.
Viking Technology’s CFast is the ideal solution for OEM designers who appreciate the form factor and capacity points of Compact Flash, but need to migrate to serial interconnects to stay in line with today’s computing platforms. System designers will also appreciate an increase in performance as Viking Technology’s CFast architecture delivers more than twice the performance of a comparable Compact Flash device. Viking Technology’s CFast cards are the perfect choice for hard drive replacements in environmentally challenging or space constrained applications.
