Whats the Difference between MMCplus and regular MMC?
General: Essentially, MMCplusTM is the next generation MMC standard. In other words it can be considered as MMC’s successor. The MMCplusTM is following the newer MMC4.1 standard released from the MMCA which allows for a transfer speed more than 20 times faster than standard MMC. Compatibility: MMCplusTM cards are fully backwards compatible with both standard MMC devices and with standard SD devices. This means that the MMCplusTM cards will have the flexibility of full compatibility with current and older devices with potential to perform in new and next generation MMCplus devices. Speed: MMCplusTM, following the next generation MMC4.1 standard, has the potential to run at speeds up to 52MB/s. This comes from a higher maximum clockspeed of 52Mhz and a higher maximum bitrate of 8bit. Compare this to previous generation SD and MMC cards and you can see the reason for the speed difference.
