ABL electronic PIC Microcontrollers PIC16 - Manual (Page 170)

Compact Flash Library provides routines for accessing data on Compact Flash
card (abbrev. CF further in text). CF cards are widely used memory elements,
commonly found in digital cameras. Great capacity (8MB ~ 2GB, and more) and
excellent access time of typically few microseconds make them very attractive for
microcontroller applications.
In CF card, data is divided into sectors, one sector usually comprising 512 bytes
(few older models have sectors of 256B). Read and write operations are not per-
formed directly, but successively through 512B buffer. Following routines can be
used for CF with FAT16, and FAT32 file system. Note that routines for file han-
dling can be used only with FAT16 file system.
Important! Before write operation, make sure you don’t overwrite boot or FAT
sector as it could make your card on PC or digital cam unreadable. Drive mapping
tools, such as Winhex, can be of a great assistance.
