emFile is a file system library that enables an embedded application or system to store data securely and reliably on any kind of storage device.
The library is the result of more than 28 years of continuous and ongoing development. It is deployed on several million devices worldwide, making it a proven in-field file system for the embedded industry. emFile is hardware-agnostic and can run on any 16/32/64-bit target for which a C/C++ compiler is available. Most 8-bit targets are supported.
Ready-to-use device drivers are available for NAND, and NOR flash, SD/SDHC/SDXC/MMC cards, e.MMC storage devices, CompactFlash cards, and USB flash drives. emFile comes with support for the common FAT12/16/32 file systems and for SEGGER's proprietary file system EFS (Embedded File System) that has been specifically designed to meet the requirements of state-of-the-art embedded applications.
Encryption
emFile offers an additional component that can be used to secure the data on the file system with minimal changes of the application. It can be used with FAT and EFS file systems and supports all device types such as NAND, NOR, SD/MMC cards.
NOR flash driver
The NOR driver allows the file system layer to efficiently write and read blocks of data (logical sectors) to and from a NOR flash device.
emFile comes with two different NOR drivers:
- Block map NOR driver
- Sector map NOR driver
NAND flash driver
The emFile NAND drivers allow the file system layer to efficiently write and read blocks of data (logical sectors) to and from a NAND flash device.
emFile comes with two different NAND drivers:
- SLC driver
- Universal driver
Fail-safe file system
emFile is designed with security in mind. All access operations are atomic, which means even an interrupt by failure does not leave storage nor data in an undefined state. In addition, RAID modes 1 and 5 can be supported to increase security at the storage layer and journaling at the file system layer.
Journaling
emFile Journaling is an additional component which sits on top of the file system and makes the file system layer fail-safe. Journaling means that a file system logs all changes to a journal before committing them to the main file system and thus ensuring the consistency of the file system.
RAID 1
emFile offers maximum data integrity and reliability with RAID 1. It provides protection from storage device defects and failures and works on the storage layer with FAT and EFS file systems.
RAID 5
emFile offers maximum data integrity and reliability with RAID 5 with increased usable capacity. RAID 5 requires at least three strorage partitions to distribute date over several partitions. Additionally, it uses less data storage to achieve the same data security as RAID 1.
Editions
The embedded file system emFile offers four basic packages that can be combined with different optional components, as shown in the following table.

Configuration and Performance Table
Memory footprint
The embedded file system emFile has been specifically designed for resource-constrained devices.
Memory requirements for 32-bit CPUs
The file system was compiled for a Cortex-M4 CPU and configured to use the MMC/SD device driver.
Memory requirements for 16-bit CPUs
The file system was compiled for an MSP430 CPU and configured to use the MMC/SD device driver.
Licensing
emFile is available under various Embedded Software License models and delivered in source code packages. With a wide range of licensing options, emFile can fulfill commercial requirements as well as technical requirements. All licenses are one-time payments. emFile is royalty-free and not subscription-based. This makes the software a part of the equipment expenses, keeping the costs static.
