￿CF-ATA Registers

The following section describes the hardware registers used by the host software to issue commands to the CompactFlash device. These registers are often collectively referred to as the “task file.”

￿Data Register (Address - 1F0h[170h];Offset 0,8,9)

The Data Register is a 16 bit register, and it is used to transfer data blocks between the CompactFlash Storage Card data buffer and the Host. This register overlaps the Error Register.

Error Register (Address - 1F1h[171h]; Offset 1, 0Dh Read Only)

This register contains additional information about the source of an error when an error is indicated in bit 0 of the Status register.

This register is also accessed in PC Card Modes on data bits D15-D8 during a read operation to offset 0 with -CE2 low and -CE1 high.

Bit 7 (BBK/ICRC): this bit is set when a Bad Block is detected. This bit is also set when an interface CRC error is detected in True IDE Ultra DMA modes of operation.

Bit 6 (UNC): this bit is set when an Uncorrectable Error is encountered.

Bit 5: this bit is 0.

Bit 4 (IDNF): the requested sector ID is in error or cannot be found.

Bit 3: this bit is 0.

Bit 2 (Abort) This bit is set if the command has been aborted because of a CompactFlash Storage Card status condition: (Not Ready, Write Fault, etc.) or when an invalid command has been issued.

Bit 1 This bit is 0.

Bit 0 (AMNF) This bit is set in case of a general error.

TS1G-32GCF133 specifications

Transcend Information, a leading manufacturer of storage and multimedia products, offers a range of high-performance memory solutions. One prominent product is the TS1G-32GCF133, a compact and reliable CompactFlash (CF) card designed for various applications, from professional photography to industrial use and embedded systems.

At the heart of the TS1G-32GCF133 is its 32GB storage capacity, which provides ample space for storing high-resolution images, videos, and data files. This capacity meets the demands of both casual users and professionals requiring significant storage for their content. The card adheres to the CompactFlash Association's CF Type I specifications, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices, including DSLRs, camcorders, and even embedded systems.

One of the standout features of this model is its impressive transfer speed. The TS1G-32GCF133 boasts a read speed of up to 133x, which translates to around 20MB/s. This relatively high-speed performance is critical for users who need quick access to data, especially when capturing bursts of images or recording video. The card's write speed, while somewhat lower, ensures that data can still be written effectively without significant delay, making it suitable for various recording scenarios.

Transcend has implemented advanced technologies in the TS1G-32GCF133 to enhance both performance and reliability. The use of SLC (single-level cell) technology in some areas ensures greater endurance and stability, which is particularly important in professional applications where data integrity is paramount. Additionally, the card is equipped with built-in ECC (Error Correction Code) functionality, which detects and corrects potential errors during data transfer, further safeguarding the stored information.

Physical durability is another critical aspect of the TS1G-32GCF133. This CompactFlash card is designed to withstand harsh conditions, making it suitable for use in demanding environments. Its robust construction is resistant to shock, vibration, and extreme temperatures, providing peace of mind for users who need reliable performance in the field or in industrial settings.

In terms of compatibility, the TS1G-32GCF133 supports both the CF5 and CF6 standards, allowing it to work seamlessly with a wide range of devices. The card is also backward compatible with older CF devices, making it a versatile choice for those upgrading their storage solutions.

In conclusion, the Transcend Information TS1G-32GCF133 stands out as a reliable and high-performance CompactFlash card that meets the needs of diverse users. With its substantial storage capacity, impressive transfer speeds, advanced technologies, and robust design, it serves as an ideal solution for professionals and enthusiasts alike who seek performance and reliability in their memory storage.
