4. How do Memory Cards Work?

A memory card (sometimes also called a flash memory card or memory card) is a small storage device that uses non-volatile semiconductor memory to store data on portable or remote computing devices. As the name suggests, the card stores data in the form of a memory chip. The chip is connected to a small printed circuit board, enabling it to communicate with the device it is inserted into. Cards can be inserted into a device, which can then read and write data.
