1. General Description
Apacer’s ATA-Flash Drive (AFD) is a high-performance, solid state drive (SSD) designed to replace a
conventional IDE hard disk drive. AFD supports standard ATA/IDE protocol and can be plugged into a
standard IDE connector commonly found in desktop or portable PCs. It is more rugged, reliable and
power-efficient compared to the mechanical hard drive and is designed for use in rugged laptops, military
devices, thin clients, Point of Sale (POS) terminals, telecom, medical instruments, surveillance systems
and industrials PCs. AFD also offers users selectable Master/Slave operation through an external jumper
setting. Apacer AFD Series is the best drop-in replacement for high-maintenance HDD where reliability is
a major concern.
AFD includes a built-in microcontroller and file management firmware that communicates through with the
ATA standard interfaces. This means the AFD does not require any additional or proprietary host software
such as the Flash File System (FFS) and Memory Technology Driver (MTD) software. AFD is designed to
work at 5 Volts, support the standard ATA/IDE protocol up to PIO Mode-4, Multiword DMA Mode-2, and
Ultra DMA Mode-4 interfaces, and use a standard ATA driver that fits to all major operating systems such
as Microsoft’s Windows series, Mac OS family, and UNIX variants
Featuring technologies as Advanced Wear-leveling algorithms, S.M.A.R.T, Enhanced Data Integrity,
Intelligent Power Failure Recovery, Secure Protection Zone and ATA Secure Erase, Apacer’s ADM
assures users of a versatile device on data storage.
1.1 Performance-Optimized Controller
The heart of an ATA-Flash Drive is the ATA controller, which translates standard ATA signals into the
data and controls of the flash media. This proprietary ATA controller is specifically designed to attain high
data throughput from the host to the flash.
1.1.1 Power Management Unit (PMU)
The power management unit (PMU) controls the power consumption of the ATA-Flash Drive controller. It
can dramatically extend product battery life by leaving the idle part of the circuitry into sleep mode. The
PMU has zero wake-up latency.
1.1.2 SRAM Buffer
The SRAM buffer is a key contributor to the ATA controller performance. It optimizes data writes to the
flash.

5. Flash Management
5.1 Intelligent Endurance Design
5.1.1 Advanced wear-leveling algorithms
The NAND flash devices are limited by a certain number of write cycles. When using a file system,
frequent file table updates is mandatory. If some area on the flash wears out faster than others, it would
significantly reduce the lifetime of the whole device, even if the erase counts of others are far from the
write cycle limit. Thus, if the write cycles can be distributed evenly across the media, the lifetime of the
media can be prolonged significantly. The scheme is achieved both via buffer management and Apacerspecific advanced wear leveling to ensure that the lifetime of the flash media can be increased, and the
disk access performance is optimized as well.
5.1.2 S.M.A.R.T. technology
S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, an open standard
allowing disk drives to automatically monitor their own health and report potential problems. It protects the
user from unscheduled downtime by monitoring and storing critical drive performance and calibration
parameters. Ideally, this should allow taking proactive actions to prevent impending drive failure. Apacer
SMART feature adopts the standard SMART command B0h to read data from the drive. When the Apacer
SMART Utility running on the host, it analyzes and reports the disk status to the host before the device is
in critical condition.
5.1.3 Built-in hardware ECC
The ATA-Flash Drive uses BCH Error Detection Code (EDC) and Error Correction Code (ECC) algorithms
which correct up to eight random single-bit errors for each 512-byte block of data. High performance is
fulfilled through hardware-based error detection and correction.
5.1.4 Enhanced data integrity
The properties of NAND flash memory make it ideal for applications that require high integrity while
operating in challenging environments. The integrity of data to NAND flash memory is generally
maintained through ECC algorithms and bad block management. Flash controllers can support up to 8
bits ECC capability for accuracy of data transactions, and bad block management is a preventive
mechanism from loss of data by retiring unusable media blocks and relocating the data to the other blocks,
along with the integration of advanced wear leveling algorithms, so that the lifespan of device can be
expanded.

5.2 Intelligent Power Failure Recovery
The Low Power Detection on the controller initiates cached data saving before the power supply to the
device is too low. This feature prevents the device from crash and ensures data integrity during an
unexpected blackout. Once power was failure before cached data writing back into flash, data in the
cache will lost. The next time the power is on, the controller will check these fragmented data segment,
and, if necessary, replace them with old data kept in flash until programmed successfully.
5.3 Enhanced Security Level
5.3.1 Secure protection zone
Partitioning with static commands to logically secure data, protection zones are the solid frameworks of
file vaults. 3 different types of zones, unprotected, read-only, and restricted, are offered for effortless
administration. When the product is shipped out of Apacer, all sectors are in the unprotected zone, which
means there is no control on any data transaction. For further management control, the read-only zone
can be set to be accessed exclusively for grantees, and the restricted zone, to be as the maximum
security stockade with full administration privilege required. A maximum of 4 zones can be configured as
either restricted or read-only zone presenting concurrently. The space outside these 4 zones is
automatically in the unprotected zone if available. After the zone has been configured, the protection zone
can be de-activated or re-activated by either software methods or hardware components. Protection zone
configuration is non-volatile and it will be in effect until the next set of configuration overwrites it.
5.3.2 ATA Secure Erase
Accomplished by the Secure Erase (SE) command, which added to the open ANSI standards that control
disk drives, “ATA Secure Erase” is built into the disk drive itself and thus far less susceptible to malicious
software attacks than external software utilities. It is a positive easy-to-use data destroy command,
amounting to electronic data shredding. Executing the command causes a drive to internally completely
erase all possible user data. This command is carried out within disk drives, so no additional software is
required. Once executed, neither data nor the erase counter on the device would be recoverable, which
blurs the accuracy of device lifespan. The process to erase will not be stopped until finished while
encountering power failure, and will be continued when power is back on.

6.1 Command Set
This section defines the software requirements and the format of the commands the host sends to the
ATA-Flash Drive (AFD). Commands are issued to the AFD by loading the required registers in the
command block with the supplied parameters, and then writing the command code to the command
register. The manner in which a command is accepted varies.
