1.0 Overview

The Intel® Z-P230 PA TA Solid-State Drive (SSD) devices are available in either a 4 GB,
8 GB or 16 GB capacities featuring either a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) connector or Mini
PCIe form factor for notebooks. The targeted application is for notebook computers
which require a small capacity and durable, low-power storage.

The Intel Z-P230 PATA SSD is electronically-drop-in compatible with mechanical PATA
Hard Disk Drives, but delivers faster boot—the loading and execution of applications
with no moving parts—leading to faster system responsiveness and longer battery life.

1.2 Architecture

The Intel Z-P230 PATA Solid State Drive is a dual-channel PAT A controller driven SSD
available in a ZIF connector or mini PCIe form factor.

The PA TA controller in the Intel® Z-P230 PAT A Solid State Drive uses a microcontroller­based architecture that enables two flash memory channels to service read and write
operations. See Figure 3, “Functional Block Diagram of Intel Z-P230 PATA Solid State

Drive” on page 7. Capable of performing flash management functions, the SSD also

implements internal wear leveling to minimize system overhead.
Intel Z-P230 PATA Solid State Drives use Intel MD516 NAND Flash Memory multi-level

cell (MLC) thin-small outline package (TSOP) devices in three capacities: 4 GB, 8 GB
and 16 GB. Refer to the Intel MD516 NAND Flash Memory Datasheet for details about
this component. Please see Section 8.0, “Additional Product Information” on page 22
for more information.

Intel MLC NAND uses the industry-standard ONFI NAND flash memory command set
that is capable of program page cache mode, page read cache mode, two plane
commands and interleaved die operations.

2.0 Regulatory Compliance

The Intel Z-P230 PATA SSD is compliant with the restriction of Hazardous Substances
(RoHS) directive. It also conforms with standards of CE Mark for European consumer
electronic compliance.

Since the Intel Z-P230 PATA SSD is intended to be contained solely within a personal
computer or similar enclosure (not attached as an external device), the SSD is tested in
representative end-user systems. While the Intel Z-P230 PATA SSD is EMC compliant
(Specification EN55022), computer manufacturers and system integrators should
confirm EMC compliance and provide CE marking for their products.

As a subassembly, no Federal Communications Commission verification or certification
of the device is required. Intel Corporation has tested this device in enclosures to
ensure that the SSD does comply with the limits for a Class B computing device,
pursuant to Subpart J, Part 15 of the FCC rules.

2. Vibration specifications assumes that the SSD is mounted securely with the input vibration applied to the drive mounting
screws. Vibration may be applied in the X, Y or Z axis.

3.5.4 Acoustics

This drive has no moving or noise-emitting parts; therefore, it produces negligible
sound (0dB) in all modes of operation.

The DMA Request signal is asserted by the drive when it is ready for data
transfer between it and the host. IORD and IOWR signals are used to control
the direction of data transfer.

The device asserts the I/O Ready signal to tell the host to extend the host

6.1.4 SMART Subcommand Set

The SMART RETURN STATUS (DAh) command returns a pass/fail value based on the
current status of the Z-P230 PA TA SSD. The BIOS or system software that interfaces to
SMART should issue this command at boot up and upon resume from a standby or
hibernate c o ndition. If the status returned is PASS, the boot up or resume sequence
should continue as normal. If however the status returned is FAIL, the BIOS or system
software should issue a warning to the end us er that their SSD is approaching it’ s drive
wear-out condition and recommend that the end user back up their SSD.

The following table details the register value for each of the subcommands available
when using the SMART (B0h) command:
