Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for addressing the memory locations of a memory card. There are several memory locations in a memory card for storing data, in which case in order to address a specific memory location an address is formed. At least one parameter is stored in the memory card, on the basis of which parameter the number of memory locations of a memory card can be calculated, and a specific number of bits is reserved for said at least one parameter. In the method, two or more memory locations are addressed with one address, and/or the number of bits that can be used in an address is increased. The invention also relates to a system and a memory card in which the method is applied.
