AMD Flash Miniature Cards can be read in either a
byte-wide or word-wide mode, which allows for flexible
integration into various system platforms. Compatibility
is assured at the hardware interface and software inter-
change specification.
Miniature Card is also designed with low-cost and
rugged handling in mind. The card contains virtually
no control logic, which keeps cost and power con-
sumption to a minimum. The Miniature Card is pack-
aged in a sonic welded, stainless steel case that
guarantees durability, provides good ESD protection
and ease of handling.
The Miniature Card has extensive third-party support,
including socket and connector solutions, software
support from the major FTL software vendors, and
PCMCIA adapter solutions and programmer support.

Term
Acronym for Attribute Information Structure. AIS is a Miniature Card specification for storing
Miniature Card attribute information.
Acronym for Electrostatic Discharge. ESD is part of the Miniature Card physical test.
Acronym for File Allocation Table. Using an FAT is a common method for managing files in a
DOS-based system.
A type of non-volatile memory that is both readable and writeable, but requires the media to
be erased before it is rewritten.
Any system that incorporates a Miniature Card socket.
User Perception: Insertion of the Miniature Card when the host is off.
Host State: The host would be either off or in sleep mode, no bus activity is occurring, the
host is non-operational by the user. The user inserts the Miniature Card and then presses a
button to turn the host on before the system is operational.
User Perception: Insertion of a Miniature Card when the host is running.
Host State: The host would be in running mode, bus activity is occurring, the host is
operational by the user. The user inserts the card, the host recognizes it, and the host
continues to be operational. Note: Hot insertion may require buffering on the host system for
proper operation.
User Perception: Insertion of a Miniature Card when the host is running.
Host State: The host would be in running mode, bus activity is occurring, the host is
operational by the user. The user inserts the card, the host immediately powers off before the
Miniature Card makes contact with the host’s internal bus. The user would then need to press
a button to turn the host on for it to become operational.
Miniature Card signals that make connection through the 60-pad connector area.
Acronym for Joint Electronic Device Engineering Council.
The side of the Miniature Card that contains the latching mechanism. The backside is
opposite the frontside.
The side of the Miniature Card that contains the interface signals. The bottomside is opposite
the topside.

AMD’s Miniature Flash cards can be used for both code
and data storage. Since fast random access is possible,
code can be directly executed from the card, reducing
the amount of system RAM required. In addition. AMD’s
Flash technology offers unsurpassed endurance, data
retention and reliability, eliminating the need for
complex error correction and defect management hard-
ware and software. Each Flash sector provides a
minimum of 100,000 cycles, which translates into a
typical card life of one million or more cycles.
