Technical Information C42-SATA • Low Profile Micro SATA SSD Mezzanine Module
Short Description
Available as a mezzanine add-on expansion
board to EKF CPU carrier cards, the C42-SATA
accommodates a Solid State Drive (SSD), as a
rugged and fast mass storage media. The
C42-SATA has been designed to fit into the 4HP
(20.32mm) envelope of a CPCI CPU carrier
board, so that another 4HP pitch mezzanine
expansion board can be stacked above the
CPU/C42 assembly in addition.
As of current, Micro SATA solid state drives are
available with up to 800GB capacity as of
current, delivering sufficient space for
installation of any popular operating system.
The 1.8-inch Micro SATA SSD will be fastened
by means of a screw locked retainer, for
optimum reliability. A Flash technology based
SATA drive provides significant advantages
compared to rotating memory solutions (aka
hard disk), e.g. less power consumption, faster
data I/O transfers, lower latency time, industrial
temperature grade and superior immunity
against shock and vibration.
SSDs of different vendors may differ
significantly in read/write access times. Contact
EKF for choosing an optimum solution.
