Product Description
The GLS85LP0512P / 1002P / 1004P / 1008P
Industrial Grade PATA NANDrive™ devices (referred
to as “PATA NANDrive” in this fact sheet) are high-
performance, fully integrated solid state drives. They
combine a Greenliant NAND controller and 512 MByte,
2 GByte, 4 GByte or 8 GByte of NAND flash memory
in a multi-chip package. These products are ideal for
embedded and portable applications that require
smaller form factor and more reliable data storage.
ATA-based solid state mass storage technology is
widely used in GPS and telematics, in-vehicle
infotainment, portable and industrial computers,
handheld data collection scanners, point-of-sale
terminals, networking and telecommunications
equipment, robotics, audio and video recorders,
monitoring devices and set-top boxes.
PATA NANDrive supports standard ATA/IDE protocol
with up to PIO Mode-61), Multi-Word DMA Mode-42)
and Ultra DMA Mode-6 interface. The PATA
NANDrive device provides complete IDE hard disk
drive functionality and compatibility in a 14mm x
24mm BGA package or a 12mm x 24mm LBGA
package for easy, space saving mounting to a system
motherboard. These products surpass traditional
storage in their small size, security, reliability,
ruggedness and low power consumption.
The integrated NAND flash controller with built-in
advanced NAND management firmware
communicates with the host through the standard ATA
protocol. It does not require any additional or
proprietary software such as the Flash File System
(FFS) and Memory Technology Driver (MTD).
PATA NANDrive provides a WP#/PD# pin to protect
critical information stored in the flash media from
unauthorized overwrites. PATA NANDrive is pre-
programmed with a 10-Byte unique serial ID and has
the option of programming an additional 10-Byte serial
ID for even greater system security.
PATA NANDrive’s advanced NAND management
technology enhances data security, improves
endurance and accurately predicts the remaining
lifespan of the NAND flash devices. This innovative
technology combines robust error correction
capabilities with advanced wear-leveling algorithms
and bad block management to significantly extend the
life of the product.
1) PATA NANDrive is capable of supporting PIO Mode-6,
but Identify-Drive information report will show PIO Mode-4
2) PATA NANDrive is capable of supporting Multi-Word
DMA Mode-4, but Identify-Drive information report will
show MWDMA Mode-2

Industrial Grade PATA NANDrive™
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Each PATA NANDrive contains an integrated PATA NAND flash memory controller and NAND flash die in a BGA
or LBGA package. Refer to Figure 2-1 for the PATA NANDrive block diagram.
1.1 Optimized PATA NANDrive
The heart of PATA NANDrive is the PATA NAND flash
memory controller, which translates standard PATA
signals into flash media data and control signals. The
following components contribute to PATA NANDrive’s
operation.
1.1.1 Microcontroller Unit (MCU)
The MCU transfers the ATA/IDE commands into data
and control signals required for flash media operation.
1.1.2 Internal Direct Memory Access (DMA)
PATA NANDrive uses internal DMA allowing instant
data transfer from/to buffer to/from flash media. This
implementation eliminates microcontroller overhead
associated with the traditional, firmware-based
approach, thereby increasing the data transfer rate.
1.1.3 Power Management Unit (PMU)
The PMU controls the power consumption of PATA
NANDrive. The PMU dramatically reduces the power
consumption of PATA NANDrive by putting the part of
the circuitry that is not in operation into sleep mode.
The Flash File System handles inadvertent power
interrupts and has auto-recovery capability to ensure
PATA NANDrive’s data integrity. For regular power
management, the host must send an
IDLE_IMMEDIATE command and wait for command
ready before powering down PATA NANDrive.
1.1.4 Embedded Flash File System
The embedded flash file system is an integral part of
PATA NANDrive. It contains MCU firmware that
performs the following tasks:
1. Translates host side signals into flash media
writes and reads
2. Provides flash media wear leveling to spread
the flash writes across all memory address
space to increase the longevity of flash media
3. Keeps track of data file structures
4. Manages system security for the selected
protection zones
5. Stores the data in flash media upon completion
of a Write command (PATA NANDrive does not
perform Post-Write operations, except for when
the write cache is enabled)
1.1.5 Error Correction Code (ECC)
High performance is achieved through optimized
hardware error detection and correction.
1.1.6 Serial Communication Interface (SCI)
The Serial Communication Interface (SCI) is designed
for error reporting. During the product development
stage, it is recommended to provide the SCI port on
the PCB to aid in design validation.
1.1.7 Multi-tasking Interface
The multi-tasking interface enables fast, sustained
write performance by allowing concurrent Read,
Program and Erase operations to multiple flash media.
1.2 SMT Reflow Consideration
The PATA NANDrive family utilizes standard NAND
flash for data storage. Because the high temperature
in a surface-mount soldering reflow process can alter
the content on NAND flash, do not program PATA
NANDrive before the reflow process.
1.3 Advanced NAND Management
PATA NANDrive’s integrated controller uses
advanced wear-leveling algorithms to substantially
increase the longevity of NAND flash media. Wear
caused by data writes is evenly distributed in all or
select blocks in the device that prevents “hot spots” in
locations that are programmed and erased extensively.
This effective wear-leveling technique results in
optimized device endurance, enhanced data retention
and higher reliability required by long-life applications.
