Multi Media Card Flash Memory card is a very small, removable flash storage device, designed specifically for storage applications placing a premium on a , low power and high performance. Multi Media Card is an ideal storage medium for portable, battery-powered devices. It extends system battery life because it is nonvolatile, requiring no power to maintain the stored data. Multi Media Card also features low power consumption and a wide operating range for temperature, shock and vibration allowing for carefree, portable storage. Multi Media Card is well suited to meet the needs of small, low power electronic devices targeted at the consumer market (Such as Palm's, MP3 devices, Digital Cameras etc. The small form factor and cost meet the miniaturization needs and low retail price requirements. With a form factor of 32mm high by 24mm wide and 1.4mm thick, it is the ideal size for small, thin portable devices, such as pagers and phones. This form factor is part of a new, emerging, proposed open standard. In order to support this wide range of applications, the Multi Media Card interface protocol is designed for maximum scalability and configurability. All device and interface configuration data (e.g. maximum frequency, supported modes of operation, memory size, card ID, etc.) will be stored on the Multi Media Card. A high performance 7 pin serial interface (SPI) allows for easy integration into any design, regardless of microprocessor utilized.
