The N-26m2 series is an industrial-grade M.2 PCIe SSD designed for embedded and industrial applications, featuring 3D pSLC NAND flash and support for NVMe 1.3 over PCIe Gen3 x4. It is available in M.2 form factors of 2230, 2242, and 2280, with dimensions of 30/42/80 mm x 22 mm x 2.63 mm. The drive operates across an industrial temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C and requires a 3.3 V supply. It supports Host Memory Buffer (HMB), End-to-End data protection, AES256 encryption (on request for 160 GB), and TRIM. Power fail protection, dynamic wear leveling, and in-field firmware updates are included. The series has an MTBF greater than 2,000,000 hours and complies with PCIe Specification Revision 3.1. Data retention is specified as 10 years at life begin and 1 year at life end at 40 °C.
The PCIe interface with NVMe protocol has become the new standard for consumer, enterprise and embedded applications. Although all three use the same SSD architecture, the individual requirements differ significantly. While high capacity and speed are most important for client and enterprise applications and are addressed by the market, the resulting heat generation poses a huge challenge to embedded applications.
The necessity to adopt the new interface standard while still just requiring small capacities ask for dedicates products. Immunity against data loss at power fail is a strong requirement for embedded and enterprise applications.
For industrial and embedded markets Swissbit addresses these different needs with the N-20m2/N2000 with HMB support, low power consumption and small form factors, and with the high performance N3002 and N-30m2 with powersafe™ hardware power fail protection. They feature thermal and data care management and various security options. Both series are also available in pSLC variants with highly increased endurance. The N3202 powersafe™ is optimized for NetCom and enterprise applications that require enterprise grade endurance with a strong Swissbit typical value set.
