ATP NVMe M.2 SSDs Offer Wide Temp Deliver Reliable Performance at 4-6X the Speed of SATA

ATP Electronics, a leading manufacturer of high-performance industrial memory and storage solutions, spearheads the implementation of industrial temperature (iTemp) support on its latest NVMe™ M.2 solid state drive modules.

By adopting NVMe 1.2 specifications and integrating 3D NAND MLC technology, ATP’s M.2 2280 NVMe SSD is constructed via a PCIe Gen 3x4 interface offering up to 1TB of memory capacity and boosted performance that exceeds the previous bottleneck of AHCI standards, delivering Sequential Read 2,540 MB/s and Sequential Write 1,100 MB/s.

The new SSD modules support a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C to capably address the power and heat issues common in fanless embedded systems as well as extreme temperature variations in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications, enabling them to perform reliably in harsh environments.

When operating at high speeds in high-throughput scenarios, onboard thermal sensors can detect abnormal temperature elevation and automatically enable a mechanism that adjusts performance to cool the system. According to Peter Huang, ATP Head of Embedded Solid State Drive Business Unit, “ATP Dynamic Thermal Throttling intelligently regulates speed and power to reduce heat without aggressive declines in performance, unlike other thermal solutions that cause abrupt drops and thus compromise stability.” Additionally, the low typical power consumption of 3.3V makes ATP’s NVMe M.2 SSDs energy efficient, translating to longer drive usage and cost savings.

ATP’s iTemp NVMe M.2 2280 SSD modules take advantage of the PCIe® Generation 3.0 x4 lane high-speed interface, delivering a bandwidth of up to 32 Gb/s (8 Gb/s per lane), which is four to six times the data transfer speed of previous-generation AHCI protocol on Serial ATA drives. Up to three times lower latency, sequential read-write speeds of up to 2,540/1,100 MB/s and random read IOPS (input/output per second) of 100,000, ensure fast and dependable performance to meet the data-intensive needs of industrial and mission-critical applications such as surveillance, medical imaging, and many network storage systems with fast caching requirements.

• 3D MLC ( Multi-Level Cell ) NAND Flash memory
• PCIe Gen3 8Gb/s Interface, x4 Lanes
• Maximum performance : Sequential Read up to 2,540 MB/s Sequential Write up to 1,100 MB/s
• LDPC (Low-Density Parity Check) & RAID engine for advance error correction External DRAM for efficient cache data processing
• Dynamic Thermal throttling
• Supports TRIM command ( Windows 7 and up )

Double-sided configuration achieves higher densities of up to 1 TB; Global Wear Leveling evens out the program/erase cycles across all blocks to prevent premature drive wear-out and increase drive longevity; and, TRIM support on Windows®7 and higher, as well as on the latest Linux® Kernel, allows the drive to perform controller functions such as garbage collection in the background to improve overall endurance and performance.
