SD Mechanical Dimensions Why Linear Flash modules vs. Flash cards, what does Executable mean, and what are all these series i.e.: C, D, E, S1, S2?

In this “execute in place” (XIP) mode, the linear card must be capable of high-speed random access read operations. XIP-type applications include those that provide internal storage for boot code, BIOS, fonts, operating systems, application programs, and data. Linear cards can also be used to download data to main memory (DRAM), the transfer being controlled by the CPU in the host system. Linear Flash cards are memory-map
