3.5.3. Micro SD-Card Reader
The micro SD-card reader is connected with internal USB-hub over the micro SC-card
controller. Micro SD-cards with up to 8GB storage are supported by the controller. MicroSD
complies to SecureDigital™(SD) card Rev. 2.0 and HC-SD (SDHC) specifications.
Beside the embedded flash memory the SD-Card reader enables the user to enlarge the
storage of the device and is listed as a USB Mass Storage Device. No further driver installation
is needed to run the Micro SD-card reader in a Windows®, Linux and Mac environment.
3.5.4. Embedded Flash
Also the embedded flash memory is connected with the internal USB-hub over the flash
controller. The actual hardware design is able to support embedded flash memory up to 4GB.
Several different partitions can be created on the flash memory:
-
CD-Rom partition (with Auto-run function)
-
Secure partition (PIN protected)
It is also possible to upload data on the flash and to create different partitions on production
level.
3.5.5. USB extension slot
The USB downstream port is connected directly with the internal hub. Due to the fact that the
internal USB hub is a Bus-Powered USB hub, only low-power devices (up to 100mA) can be
connected to the extension slot.
The @MAXX prime has only a USB extension slot for devices with a slim USB connector. The
@MAXX prime A has a regular USB type A extension slot.
