Original Name
The MICRO SD format was originally created by SanDisk. It was originally called TFLASH, andthen TransFlash, before being rechristened microSD when adopted by the SD Card Association (SDA)
Size
At 15 mm x 11 mm x 1 mm—about the size of a fingernail—it is currently the smallest memory card format commercially available. It is about one quarter of the size of a standard SD card but can be inserted into an adapter which allows the card to be used in devices with an SD card slot.Differences
TFLASH and MICRO SD cards are essentially the same, and each can be used in devices made for the other type. There is one exception, which is that unlike TransFlash, microSD devices have the capability to support NFC. 1Capacity
As of September 2006, microSD cards are commonly available in capacities from 128 MB through 2 GB, with unconfirmed samples of 4GB cards claimed to exist as well.Devices
