Memory revolutionizes the design of high performance and durable
mass storage memory systems for the Industrial, Avionics and Military markets. With its innovative features
like low power, blocked architecture, high read/write performance, and expanded temperature range, any
design, or mission, is free from the dependence on battery backed up memory or highly sensitive and slow
rotating media drives.
Using the VE28F008 in a PCMCIA 2.1 Flash Memory card, ATA drive or any size or shape module will allow
data, application, or operating systems to be updated or collected anywhere, and at anytime. This data on
demand feature ensures protection from obsolesce through field or in system software updates.
The VE28F008’s highly integrated Command User Interface and Write State Machine, decreases the size and
complexity of system software while providing high read, write and erase performance. The sixteen separately
erasable 64 Kbyte blocks along with a multiple write data protection system, provides assurance that highly
important data will be available when needed.
The VE28F008 is offered in a 40-lead TSOP (Thin Small Outline Package) which is capable of performing in
temperatures from

40§Cto
a
125§C. It employs advanced CMOS circuitry for systems requiring low power
consumption and noise immunity. The VE28F008’s 95 ns access time provides superior performance when
compared to magnetic mass storage
Manufactured on Intel’s 0.8 micron ETOX
TM
III process, the VE28F008 provides the highest levels of quality,
reliability and cost effectiveness.
