microSD Card is a type of Removable NAND-type small flash memory
card format which, introduced in 2003.
microSD measures 11mm x 15mm and 1mm thick. Two pinout tables are provided for microSD below; one table provides the pin out for SD Mode, and one table shows the SPI mode.
Refer to the following page for MicroSD Connector Manufacturers.
MicroSD is short hand for Micro-Secure Digital [Transflash]. Although Transflash was the original name for microSD, the name was changed to microSD once the standard was adpoted. Some manufacturers still use the term microSD/Transflash to describe a product.
Also refer to the SD
Card, or the miniSD
Card pages.
There are 3 speed grades: Class 2, 2MB/s, Class 4, 4MB/s and class 6 card, 6MB/s.
