Introduction
Sony
AIT-2 (Advanced Intelligent Tape) format is intelligently
engineered to stand apart - no other tape cartridge
features both an MIC chip (the brains) and a pure
metal magnetic layer designed for maximum capacity
and longevity (the brawn).
- MIC
(Memory in Cassette)- The AIT cartridges feature
a built-in flash memory chip that stores directory
and operational information. The result is rapid
access to desired data and greatly reduced loading
and ejection times.
- Massive
Capacity - AIT-2 up to 50GB1 native. Compressed
data capacities can be over 100GB.
- DLC(Diamond
Like Carbon) Coating- The tape surface is protected
by a smooth carbon coating that is nearly as hard
as diamond and 20 times harder than metal oxides.
The benefit is maximum reliability and life.
- AME
(Advanced Metal Evaporated) Tape- Now Sony delivers
100% pure cobalt for high retentivity. Patented
process for depositing a pure metal magnetic layer
directly on the basefilm without adhesive or binders.
The benefit from this AME technology is maximum
recording performance.
- Vacuum
Vaper Depostition Technology - A high-emergy electron
gun vaporizes pure metal material which is deposited
directly on the base film. No adhesive or binders
are needed to hold the magnetic layer. Deposition
of magnetic material is controlled to produce
a diagnol columnar structure at an angle that
mazimizes the singal output.
