Cactus continues to be mentioned in the press regarding our Industrial Grade and Locked-BOM Industrial MLC Flash Storage Devices. The two most recent press items are below: Embedded Computing Design published the following Blog Post by Steve Larrivee, Cactus VP Sales & Marketing. The Blog Post covers the significant differences in endurance and error rates...
Need a physical write protect solution on a SD Card which will allow normal use when disabled and never allow data to be written when enabled? Well, DON’T consider the SD card’s write protect switch since it does NOT do this. Not even Industrial SD Cards will allow guaranteed cross platform write protect since it is subject...
The embedded computers by Syslogic are used wherever conditions are particularly difficult. Whether it be in web applications, in traffic control systems or in tunnel construction. Since the best embedded computer is useless if the built-in memory fails, Syslogic primarily relies on SSD (solid state drive) by Cactus Technologies.Salt-carrying air, oil or dust, extreme temperature...
A Solid State Drive, whether Industrial, Commercial or Consumer Grade, is only as reliable as its overall system design and architecture. A key part of a SSD system is its controller. A poorly designed controller architecture and/or firmware algorithms can eliminate the advantages of the most reliable SLC NAND memory. Let’s take a look at...
For a long time, Industrial Grade flash storage products were considered anything made with SLC NAND. But as the generations of newer geometry SLC NAND arrive in the market, there are significant differences in reliability. Cactus Technologies focuses our efforts on the 43nm and 32nm SLC NAND. The larger the trace width, the more area...
