3. Theory of Operation
3.1 Overview
Figure 2 shows the operation of Innodisk InnoAGE M.2 (S80) 3TI7 from the system level, including
the major hardware blocks.
Figure 2: Innodisk InnoAGE M.2 (S80) 3TI7 Block Diagram
Innodisk InnoAGE M.2 (S80) 3TI7 integrates a SATA III controller and NAND flash memories.
Communication with the host occurs through the host interface, using the standard ATA protocol.
Communication with the flash device(s) occurs through the flash interface.
3.2 SATA III Controller
Innodisk InnoAGE M.2 (S80) 3TI7 is designed with a SATA III 6.0Gbps (Gen. 3) controller. The
Serial ATA physical, link and transport layers are compliant with Serial ATA Gen 1, Gen 2 and Gen
3 specification (Gen 3 supports 1.5Gbps/3.0Gbps/6.0Gbps data rate). The controller has 4
channels for flash interface.
3.3 MCU
Innodisk InnoAGE M.2 (S80) 3TI7 is with out-of-band signaling, which is integrated MCU to
separate connection channel. This independent communication channel is assuring constant
access, InnoAGE M.2 (S80) 3TI7 is always ready for user to remotely control such as recovery,
backup, and secure erase without depending on the reset of the system being functional.
InnoAGE M.2 (S80) 3TI7 is embedded Azure Sphere to implement out-of-band function. Azure
