There are three main differences between industrial and consumer CF cards:
1.Disk mode:
Consumer CF cards can only be used as removable disks, while industrial CF cards can be used as fixed disks.
2.Operating temperature:
Industrial CF cards: -40°C to 85°C.
Consumer CF cards: -25°C to 85°C.
3.Flash types:
Industrial CF cards typically use Single Level Cell (SLC) flash memory.
Consumer CF cards generally use Multi-Level Cell (MLC) flash memory.
Due to the SLC technology, industrial CF cards offer greater stability and durability compared to consumer CF cards.
