flash card

Intel and Micron jointly announced a new TLC NAND memory device offering improved cost and higher storage capacity for USB, SD Flash card and consumer electronics.

TLC stands for Triple-Level Cell and it offers a 20% reduction in size and will be able to produce 4TB of storage from a single wafer of the chips and 64GB single-chip Flash devices.

Ghacks: "If you are currently taking classes, or are in any situation where you need to learn a large amount of facts you may have taken it upon yourself (or are wanting) to create flash cards to help you with the learning process."

Micron and Intel have jointly announced a new 3-bit-per-cell NAND device that Micron will begin producing in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Expect the chips to reduce the cost of flash cards, for cameras and other devices, even further.
