Imagine an autonomous vehicle operating smoothly in -40°C extreme cold, accurately identifying road conditions, or data storage devices maintaining stability inside heavily vibrating industrial robots to ensure production line continuity. These seemingly routine applications actually require storage solutions of exceptional reliability. Micron Technology addresses these demanding environments with its automotive-grade and industrial-grade solid-state drives (SSDs), providing robust data security for automotive, industrial automation, and medical applications.
Compared to consumer-grade SSDs, automotive and industrial SSDs adhere to significantly higher standards in design, manufacturing, and testing. These drives must maintain stable operation under extreme temperatures, severe vibration, high humidity, and other harsh conditions while offering extended lifespan and superior reliability. They serve not merely as data storage but as critical components for equipment safety.
Micron's industrial SSD lineup delivers high-capacity options with industrial temperature support in compact form factors, ensuring reliable performance across diverse conditions. The company's automotive and industrial SSD portfolio primarily includes:
Autonomous vehicles impose exceptionally stringent requirements on data storage. They must process massive real-time data streams from cameras, radars, lidars, and other sensors while making rapid decisions. Any data loss or delay could lead to serious accidents.
The Micron 4150AT automotive SSD utilizes 176-layer TLC NAND flash memory to deliver enterprise-level performance with extended lifespan, high reliability, superior quality, enhanced endurance, and application-specific features. Certified for automotive use, it complies with ASIL-B and ASPICE Level 3 standards, meeting the automotive industry's rigorous safety and reliability requirements.
The Micron 4100AT represents an automotive-grade Gen4 PCIe SSD series designed specifically for automotive market demands, featuring longevity, reliability, quality, durability, and application-specific capabilities. Its PCIe Gen4 interface provides higher data transfer speeds to better accommodate autonomous vehicles' bandwidth requirements. The drive also demonstrates exceptional vibration and shock resistance for stable operation under challenging road conditions.
Industrial automation, medical equipment, and remote communication systems similarly require highly reliable storage solutions. These applications often operate continuously in demanding environments, placing greater demands on storage stability and reliability.
The Micron 2100AI/AT industrial SSD employs triple-level cell (TLC) 3D NAND technology in PCIe format. Available in 64GB-1TB BGA and 256GB-1TB M.2 form factors, it's engineered specifically for industrial applications with characteristics including long lifespan, reliability, quality, durability, and application-specific functionality. The drive operates across wide temperature ranges while resisting vibration and shock, ensuring stable performance in harsh industrial settings. It also incorporates data encryption and secure erase features to protect sensitive information.
Micron subjects its automotive and industrial SSDs to exhaustive testing to guarantee performance under extreme conditions. Testing protocols include:
These stringent tests ensure Micron's automotive and industrial SSDs meet the demands of challenging applications while providing dependable data security.
