SAMSUNG Now Mass Producing Three Ultra-Fast MultiMediaCards
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., the leader in advanced semiconductor technology, today announced a major new commitment to the MultiMediaCard (MMC) market by initiating mass production of two new ultra-high-speed MultiMediaCards: MMC plus™ and MMC mobile™.
The new, ultra-fast MMCs are capable of transmitting data at 52MBytes per second, up to twenty times faster than existing MMCs, by supporting wider x4 and x8 bus widths.
A third Samsung MMC, the MMC micro™, went into mass production earlier this year in densities of 32MByte/64MByte/128MB.. ...
Note that the extra speeds use extra leads/connectors, and then the device where you stick them into, must also have corresponding support (instead of just 9 connectors).
