Store More Memories
CompactFlash storage cards are small, removable, mass-storage devices. They electrically comply with CompactFlash Association standards, the PC Card ATA standard, and run in True IDE mode. These 50-position cards typically hold between 32 MB and 2 GB of memory and are about the size of a matchbook. TE’s connectors include headers that can accept Type I (3.3mm thick) or Type II (5.0mm thick) storage cards, flush and raised mounting heights, and ejectors. TE CompactFlash card connectors also provide electrostatic discharge protection.

CompactFlash storage card life expectancy
According to the CompactFlash website, a CompactFlash card can be expected to last around a hundred years. It would appear that this technology beats the silver-fish-eaten photo album of old! TE is pleased to provide the header into which Type I or Type II of these storage cards are accepted.
