What is Memory Cards and used for?
A memory card or flash memory card is solid-state electronic flash memory data storage
device capable of storing digital contents. These are mainly used with digital cameras,
handheld and Mobile computers, mobile phones, music players, digital cinematography cameras,
video game consoles, and other electronics. They offer high re-record-ability, power-free
storage, small form factor, and rugged environmental specifications. There are also
non-solid-state memory cards that do not use flash memory, and there are different types of
flash memory. Many cards incorporate wear levelling algorithms in their design.
There are many different types of memory cards and jobs they are used for. Some common
places include in digital cameras, game consoles, cell phones, and industrial applications.
CompactFlash (CF) Card
CompactFlash (CF) is a mass storage device format used in portable electronic devices. For
storage, CompactFlash typically uses flash memory in a standardized enclosure.
There are two main subdivisions of CF cards, Type I (3.3 mm thick) and the thicker Type II
(CF2) cards (5 mm thick). The CF Type II slot is used by Microdrives and some other devices,
such as the Hasseblad CFV Digital Back for the Hasseblad series of medium format cameras.
There are four main speeds of cards including the original CF, CF High Speed (using
CF+/CF2.0), a faster CF 3.0 standard and a yet faster CF 4.0 standard that is being adopted
as of 2007. The thickness of the CF card type is dictated by the preceding PC Card
standard.
Secure Digital (SD) Card br>
Secure Digital (SD) is a non-volatile memory card format developed by Matsushita, SanDisk,
and Toshiba for use in portable devices. Today it is widely used in digital cameras, digital
camcorders, handheld computers, PDAs, media players, mobile phones, GPS receivers, and video
games. Standard SD card capacities range from 1 MB to 4 GB.[1] The capacity range for high
capacity SDHC cards overlaps slightly, beginning at 4 GB but reaching as high as 32 GB as of
mid-2009. The SDXC (eXtended Capacity), a new specification announced at the 2009 Consumer
Electronics Show, will allow for up to 2 TB capacity cards.
MicroSD Card br>
MicroSD is a format for removable flash memory cards. SD is an acronym for Secure Digital.
The cards are commonly used in cellular phones, as well as in handheld GPS devices, portable
media players, digital audio players, expandable USB flash memory drives, Nintendo DS
flashcards, and digital cameras.
The microSD format was originally created by SanDisk. It was originally called T-Flash, and
then TransFlash, before being renamed microSD when adopted by the SD Card Association (SDA).
Other flash card formats approved by the SDA include miniSD and SD card.
MiniSD card
The miniSD Card is a small form factor removable and portable memory device intended for use
in cell phones/mobile phones, digital cameras, MP3 players and many other gadgets.
In a March 13, 2003 press release, SanDisk Corporation announced the introduction of the
miniSD and demonstrated it at CeBIT 2003.
The miniSD card was adopted in 2003 by the SD Association as an ultra-small form factor
extension to
mobile phones, they are usually packaged with a miniSD adapter which enables compatibility
with all devices equipped with a standard SD Memory Card slot.
Memory Stick Card
Memory Stick is a removable flash memory card format, launched by Sony in October 1998, and
is also used in general to describe the whole family of Memory Sticks. In addition to the
original Memory Stick, this family includes the Memory Stick PRO, a revision that allows
greater maximum storage capacity and faster file transfer speeds; Memory Stick Duo, a
small-form-factor version of the Memory Stick (including the PRO Duo); and the even smaller
Memory Stick Micro (M2). In December 2006 Sony added the Memory Stick PRO-HG, a high speed
variant of the PRO to be used in high definition still and video cameras.
MultiMediaCard (MMC) Card
The MultiMediaCard (MMC) is a flash memory memory card standard. Unveiled in 1997 by Siemens
AG and SanDisk, it is based on Toshiba's NAND-based flash memory, and is therefore much
smaller than earlier systems based on Intel NOR-based memory such as CompactFlash. MMC is
about the size of a postage stamp: 24 mm x 32 mm x 1.4 mm. MMCoriginally used a 1-bit serial
interface, but newer versions of the specification allow transfers of 4 or sometimes even 8
bits at a time. They have been more or less superseded by Secure Digital cards (SD card),
but still see significant use because MMCs can be used in most devices that support SD
cards.
XD-Picture Card
xD-Picture Card is a type of flash memory card, used mainly in digital cameras. xD
originally stood for extreme Digital. The cards were developed by Olympus and Fujifilm, and
introduced into the market in July 2002. Toshiba Corporation and Samsung Electronics
manufacture the cards for Olympus and Fujifilm xD cardsare now sold under other brands,
including Kodak, SanDisk, PNY, and Lexar, but are not branded with the respective companies'
logos, except for Kodak.
