Abstract
Provided is a memory device comprising a circuit assembly including a flexible substrate and at least one flash memory chip mounted thereupon. The flexible substrate has upper and lower surfaces and a flash memory chip is preferably mounted on at least one the upper and lower surfaces. The flash memory chip may be configured as one of a thin small outline package (TSOP) package device, a very small outline package (WSOP) package device, and a chip on board (COB) device. The memory device may further comprise a hollow housing body having a hollow interior compartment sized and configured to receive the circuit assembly therewithin. A universal series bus (USB) connector may be mounted on a free end of the flexible substrate and is preferably configured to electrically connect the memory device to an electric device.
