PCMCIA Adapter

by Staff Writer

The PCMCIA standard is also referred to simply as a “PC card.” It consists of a 68-pin interface that allows extremely fast communication between a peripheral device and a PC. PCMCIA has emerged as one of the leading plug-and-play technologies for all leading operating systems, including Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and UNIX.

Over the years, the PCMCIA card specification has been improved. This has made even more secure computer recognition in PCMCIA devices. Requirements and standards have been implemented that have made production easy for PCMCIA device manufacturers, thanks to the association that governs PCMCIA adaptability. Synchrotech is one of the businesses that has benefited from this standardization. For the last decade, they have been able to become one of the Internet’s most trusted sources for PCMCIA products.

For instance, Synchrotech offers PCMCIA adapters for smart cards, Compact Flash cards, SCSI control, SmartMedia™, Linear Flash (CardBus), and ATA Flash storage mediums. Regardless of the type of data storage, they have the size and selection to provide customized adaptability.

PCMCIA cards come in three types: Type I, Type II, and Type III. All three types have a standard 68-pin interface, and the only difference between them is the thickness of the card. Because the functionality of Type II and Type III cards is more complex, they simply require more physical space. A PCMCIA adapter is available from Synchrotech for virtually every type of PCMCIA device. They sell converters and adapters for FireWire®, Smart Cards, USB, SCRAM, hard drives, and much more.
