PATA NANDrive™

Product Brief

85LP Series

Product Description
The award-winning PATA NANDrive™ family of embedded solid state drives (SSDs) integrate Greenliant’s
advanced ATA controller with one or more NAND flash die in a multi-chip package. With its small form factor
and widely adopted industry-standard ATA/IDE interface, PATA NANDrive has revolutionized how embedded
system designers utilize NAND flash devices. Its built-in microcontroller and flash file management firmware
replace the need for host-side Flash File System (FFS) and Memory Technology Driver (MTD) software.
PATA NANDrive provides complete IDE hard disk drive (HDD) functionality and compatibility in a ball gridarray (BGA) package for easy, space-saving and cost-effective mounting to a system motherboard. It canalso be seamlessly integrated in systems that don’t have an ATA interface by connecting the device to a
standard memory bus. PATA NANDrive is an ideal replacement for high-density parallel NOR flash andCompactFlash cards in embedded designs that require smaller, higher security and more reliable storage.
