So as to connect CD or MS cards to a lifedrive palm. To insert in a SD slot an adapter to read CF cards or MemoryStick cards. Hi: I have been looking for the opposite. This CF card could accept a SD Card and is a Type 1 card! I am quite amazed. I bought a MINOLTA COMPACTFLASH ADAPTER FOR SD MEMORY CARDS SD-CF1 from Amazon. This second picture is taken from the " Secure Digital SD to CF CompactFlash Card Adapter Type II" web page, where you can purchase the Type II adapter. The IC chip takes up space, so a Type II form-factor is needed if a SD Card is to be fully inserted into the adapter. It's apparent from these pictures that an IC chip is required to make the conversion between SD Card and CF interfaces. It's very similar to the Type I adapter with a single IC chip as its core. The inside of the SD Card to CF Type II adapter is shown in the picture below. The picture above was found from the " Secure Digital SD to CF CompactFlash Card Adapter Type I" web page, where you can purchase the adapter. I looked around on PHISON Electronics Corp's web site, but couldn't find any specification for this chip, but it's probably very similar to their adapter and card reader integrated circuit chips. The core of the adapter is a Phison PS3001B Controller IC. Well, luckily in this situation, I didn't have to take apart one of these SD Card to CF adapters to see what's inside, because its internal is shown in the picture below. As a child, I have been known to take many things apart, but never able to put them back together. I've always wondered about the internal guts to anything I can get my hands on. But because the CF adapter is Type II, it only works with CF Type II devices. The second type of adapter allows the SD Card to be fully inserted into the CF adapter. However, this first type of adapters works in CF Type I slots.
The first type of adapter allows you to insert a SD Card into a CF Type I adapter, however, the SD Card sticks out from the CF adapter. There are two types: 1) SD Card to CF adapter and 2) SD Card to CF II adapter.
They are very rare and hard to find for purchase. Have you ever wondered what's inside a Secure Digital Card (SD card) to a CompactFlash (CF) adapter?įirst of all, yes, SD Card to CF adapters does exist.
