This standard defines the specifications of interface parameters, signaling protocols, environmental requirements, packaging, and other features for a solid state drive (SSD) targeted primarily at automotive applications.

The purpose is to provide a standard for automotive SSD devices for uniformity, multiplicity of sources, elimination of confusion, ease of device specification, and ease of use.

Unless otherwise noted in the document, any illegal operation is not allowed and device operation is not guaranteed.

The designation Automotive SSD refers to the part designation of a series of commercial logic parts common in the industry. This number is normally preceded by a series of manufacturer specific characters to make up a complete part designation. The capacity of the device is typically appended, as well as other key characteristics of the device as documented in this standard.
