The chip has been designed to handle memory cards as well
as SDIO, and we have test all we could get our hands on,
and tested for and thus 64M to 8G SD cards. It has also
been tested on a 64M MMC (1 bit) data card.

At the moment the dev kit, which is really just a bare board
USB to SD/SDIO/MMC converter, is available for evaluation.
the chips themselves are available for for purchase - see
our web site for details.

Thanks for reading through the code,
