Whois & Analysis for sdcard.org

The SD Association (SDA) is a non-profit organization that sets memory card standards intended to simplify the use and optimize the performance of consumer electronics that people use in every country.

Panasonic Corporation, SanDisk Corporation and Toshiba Corporation formed the SD Association in January 2000.

Today, the SDA has approximately 1,000 member companies involved in the design and development of SD standards.

Thousands of device models and hundreds of products across dozens of product categories integrate the small, removable memory cards.

A memory card, flash card or memory cartridge is an electronic flash memory data storage device used for storing digital information.

These are commonly used in portable electronic devices, such as digital cameras, mobile phones, laptop computers, tablets, PDAs, portable media players, video game consoles, synthesizers, electronic keyboards, and digital pianos.

Consumer electronics or home electronics are electronic or digital equipment intended for everyday use, typically in private homes.

Consumer electronics include devices used for entertainment (flatscreen TVs, DVD players, DVD movies, iPods, video games, remote control cars, etc), communications (telephones, cell phones, e-mail-capable laptops, etc), and home-office activities (e.g., desktop computers, printers, paper shredders, etc).

In British English, they are often called brown goods by producers and sellers, to distinguish them from "white goods" such as washing machines and refrigerators.

In the 2010s, this distinction is not always present in large big box consumer electronics stores, such as Best Buy, which sell both entertainment, communications, and home office devices and kitchen appliances such as refrigerators.

Consumer electronics stores differ from professional audio stores in that the former sells consumer-grade electronics for private use, whereas the latter sells professional-grade electronics designed for use by audio engineers and audio technicians.

An ecosystem is a community of living organisms in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment (things like air, water and mineral soil), interacting as a system.

These biotic and abiotic components are regarded as linked together through nutrient cycles and energy flows.

As ecosystems are defined by the network of interactions among organisms, and between organisms and their environment, they can be of any size but usually encompass specific, limited spaces (although some scientists say that the entire planet is an ecosystem).

Card standard(s) may refer to any of a number of standards related to smartcards.
