Toshiba, a provider of NAND flash memory technologies, and its North American subsidiary, Toshiba America Electronic Components (TAEC), have revealed the new 64GB SDXC memory card. The company claims that the new memory card is capable of operating at faster data transfer rate for reading and writing to a flash memory card.
Toshiba has also unveiled 32GB and 16GB SDHC memory cards. The new SDXC and SDHC memory cards are compliant with the SD memory card standard version 3.00, UHS104, which brings a maximum write speed of 35MB per second, and a read speed of 60MB per second, the company said.
The new memory cards support UHS104, which provides the conventional SD interfaces: 3.3V DS (25MHz) and HS (50MHz). The new SDHC memory cards with UHS104 are interoperable with existing SDHC host devices.
According to the company, the combination of large storage capacities and increased data transfer rates will meet the needs of a wide range of consumer electronics applications such as digital still cameras and digital camcorders that require high bandwidth data communication.
The company said, samples of the new SDXC memory cards will be available in November, and samples of the new SDHC memory cards will be available in December.
