    SUPPORTS DMA when used with SANDISK SDCFB-xxx-201-xx cards!

    Our IDE Compact Flash Adapter PCB is designed to provide an interface between the Compact Flash 50 pin Bus and the IDE interface standard. It does not require drivers, and is bootable under all operating systems.  It looks like a small hard drive to the computer.  We worked with Sandisk to be the first IDE to compact flash adapter to support DMA.  Type I & II CF cards are supported. We are also the only manufacture that controls the power to the CF card via presence detection.  A mounting plate is provided for mounting the adapter in a floppy drive bay.
     
    Compact Flash to IDE The adapter module connects to the host PC in the same way that a hard drive is connected, using an IDE cable and power cable.  Connection to the Compact FLASH(CF) card is made via a type 1/II 50 pin Compact FLASH card socket.  It has jumper options to be either a Master or Slave, or the only IDE device on the IDE channel.  Only 5V is used/required from the 5-1/4" disk drive power connector, allowing it to be used in single supply voltage installations. 

    It is referred to as a Compact FLASH to IDE Adapter, IDE Compact flash adapter, Compact FLASH adapter, solid state drive, FLASH Drive, Compact Flash IDE, as well as IDE to Compact FLASH Adapter. Works with DOS, Windows 95, 98, XP, 2000, Linux, Unix, allowing the operating system to boot and run from a Compact FLASH card. Uses include firewalls, Siparators, industrial computers, and any other device that requires rugged solid state storage.

    Using the Compact Flash IDE adapter, with a Compact Flash card as a solid state bootable(boot flash) disk drive, provides a highly reliable bootable program and data storage device. Compact Flash can provide a robust, low current, low operating temperature, and highly reliable storage solution for your embedded PC or application. Using Compact Flash with the Compact Flash to IDE Adapter is a better solution than a flash drive(flashdrive), since the media is removable, and the price of compact flash cards per megabyte is much cheaper because of the consumer driven price point.
    IDE Compact flash adapter 
    If your application/platform works with an IDE drive, then it will work with a Compact Flash card and our IDE Compact Flash Adapter. Once the adapter is connected, and a Compact FLASH(CF) card is inserted, the Compact FLASH card will appear as a hard drive on your PC.  Indicator LED's for card power and card activity are provided on the front edge of the adapter.  Mounting holes are provided to allow mounting in a 3-1/2" hard drive mounting bay.  It can be mounted to the front of the bay for easy user accesss card removal, or the back of the drive bay for a secure non-removable environment.

    Our IDE Compact Flash Adapter can be installed in a 3-1/2" floppy bay for user access using the included mounting plate.  Indicator LED's for card power and card activity are provided on the front of the adapter. The Compact Flash IDE Adapter can be mounted to the front of the bay for easy user accesss card removal, or the back of the drive bay for a secure non-removable environment. 

    The ACS IDE to CF Adapter does not support 3.3volt only Compact Flash Cards, and according to the CF card manufactures, should not be hot swapped!
