SmartMedia flash memory card is a removable flash memory card that can be used in several different types of digital devices; including digital cameras, digital music players and digital voice recorders. Smart Media flash memory is an elegently simple Flash RAM specification. A Thin Package Flash Memory IC is embedded in a card with a direct connection to the dataport. Smart Media cards from OpticsPlanet.com are fully compatible with all devices that run the Smart Media type flash memory cards. OpticsPlanet SmartMedia memory is one of the thinnest solutions for removable solid-state memory. About one third the size of a credit card and just as thin, SmartMedia is a small but durable format. Built with solid-state construction, with no moving parts that will wear down over time, our Smart Media will securely store your music, images and data.
The main advantage that SmartMedia cards have over the other memory cards is that because they read, write, and erase memory in small blocks of data (256 or 512 bytes at a time), you can more precisely select what data you want to save. Although the SmartMedia card was well received when it hit the market (especially the digital camera segment), SmartMedia cards have a few underlying weaknesses.
Capacities of SmartMedia cards are in sizes of 2mb, 4mb, 8mb, 16mb, 32mb, 64mb and top off at 128mb. Due to limited capacities, low transfer rates, it’s less sturdy encasing (compared to other flash memory card formats), the SmartMedia card has been replaced by other formats (primarily XD cards and SD cards).
