SDHC vs SDXC

When you compare SDHC vs SDXC, you will find that the newer card start at a memory capacity of 64GB and can go up to a maximum theoretical capacity of 2 TB (TerraBytes).

The Secure Digital mobile memory is the same as the TransFlash card and both can be used in compatible electronic devices with the only difference being, that the micro SDHC card adds support for SDIO (Secure Digital Input Output) mode which enable non-memory cards like GPS, Bluetooth, and Near Field Communication (NFC) devices to work.

SanDisk Micro Secure Digital Cards

Both TransFlash and the micro mobile memory card are the same because the format of the mobile memory was originally created by SanDisk who called it “T-Flash”, which then became TransFlash. Finally the memory card was re-named micro SD when it was adopted by the SD Card Association.
