MicroSD

(Redirected from T-Flash)

microSD is an ultra-compact (currently the world's smallest) flash RAM memory card format.

microSD cards are 11mm x 15mm x 1mm thick — roughly the size of a fingernail — and are intended for use in small devices like mobile phones and portable audio players. microSD cards are usable in SD-compatible devices via an adapter.

microSD cards come in capacities of 16–256MB, and are expected to reach capacities of 512MB by the end of 2005. The format is currently supported primarily by mobile phone manufacturers, including Kyocera, Motorola and Samsung.

The microSD format was originally created by SanDisk. It was originally called T-Flash and then TransFlash before being rechristened microSD when adopted by the SD Card Association (SDA). Other flash card formats approved by the SDA include miniSD and SD.
