MultiMedia Card (MMC) is commonly used in portable devices due to their high density, rewritability and low cost. The use of MMC in embedded systems enables the systems to possess a removable, upgradeable and external mass storage.

MMC Manufacturers usually formats the cards in FAT12/FAT16/FAT32, and can be read/write in almost all computers. This project aims to integrate a FAT file system in freertos_posix for reading/writing files in MMC by 8/16-bit embedded systems. The API employs POSIX and Standard C-library standard for I/O operations.

While our MMC card reader will use the MMC protocol, we probably won't use actual MMC cards.
 
MultiMedia Card (MMC) is long obsolete and superseded by SD and SDHC.
 
We will most likely use the more commonly available SD cards, which support both the [[MultiMediaCard]] protocol and the SD protocol.
 
The MMC protocol is the easiest way to communicate with SD cards.
 
SD cards have relatively high density, rewritability and low cost.
