eMMC stands for "embedded MultiMediaCard." It is a type of non-volatile memory storage commonly used in embedded systems. It is basically an MMC card soldered directly onto a PCB, so that the card becomes part of the system and can not be removed.

An eMMC, like most other memory card, combines NAND flash memory with a flash memory controller.


What are the benefits of eMMC?

  • Small footprint
  • Large capacities available (from 4GB to 64GB and more)
  • Affordable
  • Standard interface, in both hardware and software (vendor independent)
