The new 32GB Memory Stick Pro-HG
SanDisk and Sony have planned to begin development on the new Pro-HG Memory Stick in January 2007, and will likely ship later in the year. Using an enhanced, 8-bit parallel interface and conventional serial and 4-bit parallel interface, data transfers will max out at 480Mbps, nearly three times the rate of the current Memory Stick Pro, and have increased capacity. The card is intended for real-time recording of high-resolution video and still images which can require large, high resolution data transfers. The good news is that the MSPro-HG is an extended format of the MSPro cards, so either card can be used in the same reader. Phew - at least it isn’t another out-of-the-blue, completely new Sony storage media.
Memory Stick PRO-HG Specs:
- Dimensions: Duo size (31 × 20 × 1.6) mm
- Connector Pin: 14-pin
- Capacity: 32GB (format maximum) (NOTE: This data does not guarantee that Memory Stick PRO-HG 32 GB media will be introduced to the market. Memory Stick PRO-HG product lineup is not yet fixed. Memory Stick PRO HG recording capacity, transfer speed etc. will depend on specifications of compliant host devices.)
- Max. Data Transfer Rate: 480 Mbps (theoretical)
- Min. Write Speed: 120 Mbps (As of 8-bit parallel transfer); 40 Mbps (As of 4-bit parallel transfer)
- Operating Voltage: 2.7 to 3.6 V
- Interface: 8-bit / 4-bit parallel I/F and Serial I/F
- Max. Clock frequency: 60MHz
