Memory Card for Industrial Use: A Comprehensive Overview

With over 19 years of experience in providing high-quality storage products, Longsys came up with industrial storage products that assure the seamless working of industrial applications. The SD cards provided by Longsys are built to endure extreme temperature and shock and guarantee non-stop data storage and data retrieval.

Now the days of floppy disks, hard disks, and tapes have gone. Industrial applications rely greatly on tiny storage chips for storing music, recordings, and data. Memory card is one of the most widely used storage solutions designed for powering up storage-intensive applications. It has huge compatibility- can fit into almost any application such as cameras, smartphones, and navigation systems. But certain types of memory cards are made for specific applications such as memory card for industrial use is designed to power up enterprise applications.

Performance of Memory Cards

Industrial memory cards provide fast performance in terms of speed, storage, and data transfer than earlier chips. The performance of any memory card greatly depends on the type of firmware, capacity, and speed class. FORESEE is manufacturing cards by utilizing the Longsys self-developed firmware that guarantees excellent compactness and ruggedness. The speed of any card is determined by the type of its speed class. These industrial memory cards follow the UHS speed class that provides a maximum speed of up to 100Mb/s. UHS is an ultra-high speed class that is highly used in SD cards to promote the fast recordings of HD videos with its fast write speed.

These cards are specified with efficient data performance, high data integrity, and reliability. The use of a high-quality flash memory medium makes it more effective for data processing and storage. Its non-volatility nature is assuring the excellent retention of the massive amount of data. These commercial and industrial series cards are fulfilling the storage needs of distinct applications such as IPC, DVR, rail traffic systems, dash cam, medical devices, car entertainment systems, gaming systems, drones, automation systems, handy devices, terminals, etc.

Industrial Memory Card Series

Different versions of memory cards are present in the market such as consumer-grade, industrial-grade, EPLUS microSD cards, pSLC SD cards, and MLC SD cards. You need to identify your application storage requirements when choosing the best memory card for it. First, explore different versions of cards and then choose a card that is the right fit for your system.

2. Industrial MLC Memory Cards

It is MLC based memory card that is designed to store 2 bits per cell. MLC flash medium provides a high level of durability than the SLC medium. It is supporting a heavy application by providing a good combination of speed, endurance, and performance. These series provide the maximum storage facility from 8GB to 256 GB. The memory medium is very tough and can withstand up to 7000 P/E cycles. It supports high-grade systems that require wide storage temperature endurance from 40°C to 85°C.

3. Industrial pSLC Memory Cards

This parallel single-level cell memory card provides a secure way to manage the massive amount of data ranging from 8GB to 128 GB. It reinforces the application to provide a transmission speed of 100Mb/s by providing maximum 2500/5000 4K IOPS. The dash cams, vehicle DVR, and industrial control applications function properly with this chip. The support of a high level of smart functions optimizes the stable operations of an application. It has long service life as this chip can endure 30,000 P/E cycles. When it comes to reliable and high-performance storage, pSLC memory cards are always the go-to solution.

Key Benefits Offered by Industrial Memory Card

1. High Level of Data Security

FORESEE memory cards are known for providing a high level of data protection. Encryption technology keeps the data secure during transmission. The data is securely stored in the card and it prevents the loss of data by keeping the backup of data. It uses a high level of bad block handling technique which also contributes to data protection.

2. Long Service Period

The long-lasting durable chips are perfect for enterprise applications for handling extreme environmental harshness. Memory cards are coded with a balance wear mechanism that manages a load of data precisely in different memory cells. It has a service monitoring system that keeps track of the health of the chip thus extending the service period of a memory card.

3. Multi-channel Processing

The use of a durable NAND flash medium and high-speed class interface enables the memory card to provide the benefits of multi-channel processing. FORESEE cards are powered by a premium flash memory medium that optimizes a high level of read and writes performance.

4. Tested for Non-stop Reliability

The non-stop reliability and longevity of FORESEE memory cards are the results of reliability tests conducted during the development process. Several tests are conducted to determine the reliability of these cards. The testing series include the performance test, SDIO protocol test, signal integrity test, wide-temperature test, and aging and power fluctuation test.

Conclusion

Industrial series memory cards are ideal for enterprise applications however their performance often varies depending on the type of card and the application. You should choose a card that provides excellent speed, reliability, and compactness. Longsys is dedicated to providing innovative memory cards that meet the needs of the ever-changing world.
