CF+和CompactFlash规格版本1.4是针对CF+存储卡及设备制定的技术标准,详细规定了其物理特性、电气接口以及数据传输规范。
CompactFlash Association (CFA) was founded in October 1995 with the goal of introducing a new class of advanced, compact, lightweight, and low-power mobile products that would greatly enhance productivity and improve peoples lifestyles.
The core idea behind CompactFlash (CF) technology is to enable capturing, retaining, and transporting data, audio, and images on CompactFlash Storage Cards. These cards facilitate easy transfer of various digital information and software between a wide range of digital systems.
CFA approved the CompactFlash standard as a vendor-independent specification that ensures CF products function correctly and are compatible with future designs. This eliminates compatibility issues for users.
Recently, CFA has developed the CF+ specification to expand the original concept beyond flash data storage by including I/O devices and magnetic disk data storage. The new specification covers both Type I (3.3mm thick) cards and newer Type II (5mm thick) cards. While many CompactFlash and I/O devices can fit into a Type I card, the thicker Type II cards allow for higher capacity CompactFlash cards, magnetic disk cards, and additional I/O cards.
