Product Description:

The 5CFCRD.2048-03 compact flash card is produced by B&R Automation and belongs to the 5CF Compact Flash Cards series. As solid-state removable media, the device provides program and data storage for PLC CPUs, panel controllers, and drive modules that lack internal disks. Its compact size allows direct insertion into ATA-compatible slots on industrial backplanes, giving users a quick way to load application files, back up recipes, or log production data without a tethered PC. Because the card is removable, stored machine data can be transferred between compatible devices without opening the controller housing.

Its capacity of 2 GB offers ample space for application code while retaining fast access times. Continuous transfer performance reaches 8 MB/s on sequential reads and 6 MB/s on sequential writes, which supports rapid boot cycles and short transfer times during media changes. The card communicates through the standard ATA/IDE protocol, so legacy controllers recognize it as a conventional hard disk without driver changes. Data is stored in SLC single-level cells, which extend endurance and keep latency predictable under high write intensity. Static wear leveling redistributes blocks evenly, and internal error-correcting logic corrects bit errors before they reach the host.

Endurance is rated at >2,000,000 erase/write cycles for each block and a mean time between failures of >4,000,000 h at 25 °C. Read integrity is specified as <1 error per 10^14 bits read, which suits quality-critical trace files. Even without S.M.A.R.T. reporting, health can be inferred from normal controller diagnostics. The card measures 42.8 mm wide, 36.4 mm long, and 3.3 mm high, yet weighs only 11.4 g, so mechanical load on the slot connector remains low. It can store recipes, audit trails, and motion parameter sets in non-volatile memory.
