A CD-ROM playback speed of 48× has finally been achieved.
We can say that the CD-ROM has reached the transfer rates of hard disks only a few years ago.
The CD-ROM is now indispensable in personal computers for installing application software.
The CXD3030R system-on-a-Chip (SoC) product represents an optimal selection for compact basic design, energy-saving design, and increased speed.
