We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "MMC",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release CPU module comes with ample memory from
Ronetix, which we summarised at the time by saying "The AT91SAM9263 is a SODIMM200-format CPU module based on a 240MHz ARM926E CPU".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Microprocessor integrates floating point and more from
Renesas Technology Europe: "Highly integrated microprocessor targets sophisticated consumer applications such as high-end audio/video equipment, media servers and set-top-boxes".
In October 2007, we covered the news from STMicroelectronics
concerning its EMIF06-SD02F3
- take a look at Multifunction IC cleans up card interfaces
which says: "Memory-card transceiver integrates signal conditioning, bidirectional level shifting, ESD protection, EMI filtering and a 2.9V voltage regulator".
Take a look also at the news release from QuickLogic, Programmable devices enable mobile differentiation,
as well as Multiplexer handles high and dual voltage from Fairchild Semiconductor,
and Programmable connectivity for embedded processors from QuickLogic.
