Secure Digital Card technology is used in over 350 products across all technical product categories and in more than 10,000 models.
Secure Digital Memory Card is also available in several formats including standard and high capacity formats. There are also a large variety of speed classes to choose from to ensure you can choose the right Secure Digital Memory Card for the job. The Secure Digital Card has great flexibility in terms of compatibility and interoperability and this will ensure that they will continue to expand far into the future.
Secure Digital Cards was developed by a group of companies to help with the ever growing popularity of media devices such as Digital Cameras and Camcorders. The main companies involved in the development of Secure Digital Memory Cards were SanDisk, Matsushita, and Toshiba and the format has become one of the most popular memory card formats available. You will find support for Secure Digital Card in all types of media devices from GPS System, Digital Cameras, PDAs, Mobile Phones and Game Consoles to name a few. The Secure Digital Cards size varies from 1gb to 32gb.
What is Secure Digital Memory Card ? The original Secure Digital Card measures just 24mm x 32mm x 2.1mm around the size of a normal postage stamp. The slim, lightweight and compact design of Secure Digital Memory Card ensures easy handling, a very important requirement for a product that will be moved between different consumer products.
A Secure Digital Card compatible product or device can easily video clips and play music using the decoder software built into the card. This can be achieved without the use of a drive mechanism like those in DVD and CD players.
This has several advantages of past media storage, the main two being that the equipment can be more compact and there is a great improvement on reliability due to the fact that there are no moving parts. This gives Secure Digital Memory Cards product designers a new creative freedom to explore a wider range of design concepts.
A new specification was introduced by the Secure Digital Card Association that specified the minimum data transfer rate required for standard and high capacity Secure Digital Cards. The specification highlighted the fact that the new Secure Digital Cards had the ability to store between 4gb to 32gb and that you could do more at ever greater speeds across the entire Secure Digital Memory Card line. The high capacity Secure Digital Memory Cards are recognised by the inclusion on all cards of "HC" or "SDHC" to make sure the consumer is not confused and that the new capability is clearly designated.
Of course more storage is just one part of the Secure Digital Memory Card issue, with more memory comes the need for more speed. This problem is solved with the introduction of 3 new speed classes. The new speed classes will allow host products to check the Secure Digital Card fragmented state and calculate the correct write speed for each part of the card. This allows the host to quickly determine the best place to write the data to according to its data speed requirement.
There are three SDHC speed classes and they are : Class 6, Class 4 and Class 2 - ensuring transfer speeds of at least 6, 4 and 2mb per second. This ensures that each product can be analyzed for suitability and guarantee performance of your products.
