Detailed explanation-1: -Microprocessor cards (also generally referred to by the industry as “chip cards") offer greater memory storage and security of data than a traditional mag stripe card.
Detailed explanation-2: -SD cards currently come in three tiers describing memory capacity ranges: Standard SD cards go up to 2GB; SDHC (High Capacity) cards range from 4GB to 32GB, and SDXC (Extended Capacity) cards go from 64GB up to 2TB.
Detailed explanation-3: -While they are all commonly known as SD cards, there are currently four sub-types of secure digital cards: SD, SDHC, SDXC, and SDUC.
Detailed explanation-4: -Due to the smaller size, microSD cards typically cost less than a regular SD card of the same brand and specs, and the included card adapter makes it just as useful. SD cards are unlikely to be phased out any time soon, but they can become more inconvenient over time, if PCs and newer devices favor the microSD format.
