As flash data storage requirements continue to increase, flash storage memory modules offer a small, scalable and semi-removable alternative to embedded NOR and NAND components. Based on the industry-standard serial SD ?interface, SanDisk’s incredibly small TransFlash memory module is ideal for designs where space is limited, as well as
storage-hungry designs demanding 32MB* or larger amounts of embedded flash. TransFlash is perfect for today’s industrial and consumer applications requiring a small footprint, high capacity,scalable storage solution.
SanDisk’s TransFlash is the world’s smallest removable flash memory storage module, measuring a miniscule 11mm by 15mm and 1mm thick. The optimal solution for the embedded flash storage market,TransFlash is currently available in 32MB, 64MB and 128MB capacities (with higher capacities coming soon).
When compared to flash data storage solutions based on the component design, semi-removable TransFlash offers system designers and manufacturers significant advantages such as lower overall manufacturing costs, greater design flexibility and scalability,seamless technology transitions, and faster time to market. Empower your designs today with SanDisk’s innovative TransFlash memory module.
The small, scalable, semi-removable solution for next-generation embedded flash data storage applications.

SanDisk TransFlash. The next evolutionary embedded flash solution.
SanDisk, the world’s largest supplier of flash data storage products, continues to lead the industry in the ongoing evolution of application memory solutions. Our newest innovation, TransFlash, combines the low cost and small size of component flash with the flexibility of removable media. The result is a superior flash module solution with a wide range of capacities.
In comparing a flash component vs. a TransFlash module, the “old” component memory solution requires multiple memory components directly soldered onto the printed circuit board. This approach creates many problems, among them:
? Host processor managing individual memory components
? Constantly changing memory technologies requiring frequent hardware and software updates
? Limited flexibility in memory capacity without hardware re-spin
? Limited scalability
? Limited field memory upgradeability
? Requires complicated memory management and reliability algorithms
In contrast, SanDisk’s new scalable TransFlash module approach offers significant design and manufacturing advantages, including:
? The same physical form factor (footprint) for a wide range of capacities
? On-board controller eliminates the need for host memory management and separate software
development for ECC and wear leveling
? Seamless memory component technology transitions
? Industry-standard serial interface to minimize risks (plus backwards compatibility)
? Unprecedented upgradeability and flexibility
? On-board savings in real estate
TransFlash Approach
More features, more benefits, less risk.
SanDisk’s TransFlash memory module gives system designers and manufacturers a variety of innovative features and important benefits:
