Anuntat pentru prima data de SanDisk Corporation la CeBIT 2003, cardul miniSD s-a alaturat Memory Stick Duo si xD-Picture Card in acest format extrem de redus. Cardul miniSD a fost adoptat in 2003 de catre Asociatia SD ca o extensie a standardului SD in format ultra-subtire. In timp ce noile carduri erau concepute in special pentru folosirea in telefoanele mobile, sunt livrate cu un adaptor miniSD care il face compatibil cu toate aparatele echipate cu un slot standard de card de memorie SD. Cardurile MiniSD sunt fabricate de mai multi producatori si au mai multe denumiri comerciale. Compatibilitatea lor este universala.
