Embedded Flash Drives

The SanDisk family of  eld-proven

high-capacity iNAND EFDs delivers

high performance, reliability and low

power

consumption for multimedia hand-

sets. Count on SanDisk advanced,

MLC NAND  ash technology for cost-effective data

and code storage. An internal  ash controller and

embedded  rmware, utilizing SanDisk system

know-how, make iNAND more reliable and ease the

transition to new  ash technologies.

SanDisk  ash management software

is embedded inside SanDisk EFDs,

enabling them to emulate a standard

hard disk drive and serve as a boot

device, while ensuring MLC NAND

reliability. Robust  ash error detection

and correction, automated bad block management

and advanced wear-leveling algorithms deliver de-

vice reliability, endurance and data retention.

The SanDisk family of iNAND EFDs

comes in a range of capacities and

con gurations that support both the

eSD and eMMC standard interfaces,

including high-capacity, discrete MLC

NAND  ash and multi-chip package

(MCP) con gurations with low-power DRAM. They

enable seamless migration to future designs, and

scalable storage of up to 16GB.
