MultiMediaCard, an early standard for solid-state flash memory cards.

MultiMediaCard is an early flash memory card standard. It uses a simple serial interface and lacks the physical write-protect switch found on the later SD cards that largely superseded it. While the removable cards are mostly obsolete, the underlying protocol survives in embedded applications like eMMC, which is widely used for internal storage in mobile devices.
