Toshiba To Make A 1-Gigabit SmartMedia Card

According to a story in EE Times, Toshiba has developed a new IC package that is as thin as a piece of paper. Toshiba has plans to use the technology to make higher-capacity flash memory storage cards by next year. Using the new package, Toshiba will stack four flash devices in the same opening. By the first half of next year, Toshiba plans to ship samples of a 1-Gbit SmartMedia card which uses four stacked 256-Mbit flash devices.
