MICRODIA launches world's first High Speed 16.0GB SDHC Flash Memory Card series (Press Release)
MICRODIA announced the global launch of its latest flash memory card innovation – the 16.0GB SDHC Card. Offering data transfer rates of up to 24MB/sec for the professional XTRAPRO 160X series, this card becomes the fastest and highest capacity SDHC to hit the market. MICRODIA’s high speed SDHC cards conform to the SD memory card Ver.2.00 standard introduced by the SD Card Association. In addition to XTRAPRO, the new 16.0GB SDHC is also available in MICRODIA’s mid-range XTRAPlus 82X and entry-level XTRA 52X card families, offering data transfer rates of up to 12.3MB/sec and 7.8MB/sec respectively.
All MICRODIA SDHC cards are bundled with a specially designed SDHC Card Reader for ease of use and the company estimates delivery of within 1 week from receipt of order confirmation. Suggested retail prices as follows:
SDHC technology conforms to the SDA 2.0 specification introduced by the SD Card Association last year, allowing manufacturers to develop SD cards with capacities from 4.0GB up to 32.0GB. This development meets the ever growing memory requirements of new generation audio/video and telecommunications devices such as camcorders, 3G cell phones, computers, digital still cameras, LCD/Plasma televisions, GPS systems, PDAs and more. 3 confirms that the new SDHC card will be 100% fully compatible with SDHC enabled devices.
MICRODIA’s high speed XTRAPRO cards are built with proprietary EPM (“Enhanced Processing Management”) Technology for improved efficiency and performance, thereby delivering some of the fastest read/write speeds in the industry. XTRAPRO cards are also based on Single Level Cell (SLC) NAND Flash technology, which stores one bit per cell and uses an optimized controller combined with large block NAND technology to achieve high data transfer rates. Compared to Multi Level Cell (MLC) NAND Flash technology, which allows each memory cell to store two bits of information, SLC NAND Flash technology provides excellent performance well suited for professional use especially those with demanding speed requirements.
