Silicon Motion’s FerriSSD is optimally designed for a wide range of embedded applications that require faster access speed, a small, flexible form-factor, and reliable serial ATA (SATA) or parallel ATA (PATA) storage. The FerriSSD combines industry-proven controller technology, NAND Flash, and passive components into a single small BGA package which simplifies design efforts and reduces time-to-market while protecting from NAND technology migration concerns.
The FerriSSD products consist of SATA and legacy PATA series that feature a high-throughput transfer rate with optional embedded DRAM to enhance data storage efficiency and high random read and write input/output operations per second (IOPS). The 4th generation FerriSSD leverages Silicon Motion’s highly advanced technologies, including IntelligentScan, DataRefresh, high-bandwidth, low-density parity check (LDPC) error correcting code (ECC) engine with group page RAID, and end-to-end data path protection to provide unsurpassed data integrity in a non-volatile storage device. The FerriSSD products support 3D single-level cell (SLC), multi-level cell (MLC), and three-level cell (TLC) modes NAND Flash options.Features
