Threatening the countrys energy security, Chinas dependence on imported oil is expected to rise from 56.7 percent in 2011 to an astounding 58.6 percent in 2012. With the figures looking as grim as ever, Professor Roland Dannreuther of the University of Westminster, England, during his recent seminar, Cycles and Curses: The International Political Economy of Oil, shared his opinion with the Voice of Russia on how well the CCP copes with this burning issue.

Ps-vita - gamecard (10pins) / memorycard (9-pins)


PS Vita Cards

Two types of cards: Gamecards (on which games are sold) and Memorycards (to hold your savedata for games that don't use the storage on the Gamecards)

PS Vita Gamecards

Comparison: Nintendo 3DS cart, common SD card, PSVita Gamecard, common microSD card

PSVita Cards measurements

10 pin SD sized card (physical incompatible). ±1.4mm pitch.

Savegames stored on the Gamecards cannot be copied/exported.

Currently produced as 2GB and 4GB cards.

PS Vita memory cards come in five variants:

  • 4 GB (€ 12 to € 30 -> €3 to 7,5 per GB)
  • 8 GB (€ 26 to € 46 -> €3,25 to € 5,75 per GB)
  • 16 GB (€ 35 to € 55 -> €2,1875 to € 3,4375 per GB)
  • 32 GB (€ 65,- -> € 2,03125 per GB)
  • 64 GB (9580 yen, ~$94 -> $1,46875 per GB)

Notes:

  1. Direction is relative to card. I = Input, O = Output.
  2. PP = Push-Pull logic, OD = Open-Drain logic.
  3. S = Power Supply, NC = Not Connected (or logical high).
  4. The extended DAT lines (DAT1-DAT3) are input on power up. They start to operate as DAT lines after the SET_BUS_WIDTH command.
    It is the responsibility of the host designer to connect external pullup resistors to all data lines even if only DAT0 is to be used.
    Otherwise, non-expected high current consumption may occur due to the floating inputs of DAT1 & DAT2 (in case they are not used).
  5. After power up, DAT3 is input with 50Kohm(+/-20Kohm) pull-up (can be used for card detection or SPI mode selection.
    The pull-up may be disconnected by the user, during regular data transfer, with SET_CLR_CARD_DETECT (ACMD42) command.
