Industrial microSD for extreme environments

This Kingston Industrial microSD card delivers 16GB capacity with UHS-I U3 V30 A1 ratings for sustained write performance. It is built for embedded systems, industrial cameras and data loggers that must operate reliably from -40°C to 85°C. The included SD adapter allows use in full-size slots without a separate purchase. Its pSLC mode and 1920 TBW endurance suit write-intensive workloads.

Thermals and power in normal use

The card is rated for continuous operation across a -40°C to 85°C temperature range without active cooling. Solid-state construction means zero moving parts, silent running and negligible power draw during read or write cycles. Built-in ECC, wear levelling and bad-block management maintain data integrity over up to 30K P/E cycles. An optional health monitoring tool helps track remaining lifespan in the field.

Build integration and what it frees up

The microSD form factor with bundled SD adapter fits single-board computers, rugged handhelds and compact IoT gateways where a 2.5-inch drive cannot. High endurance reduces the frequency of field replacements in remote or sealed enclosures. U3 and V30 ratings guarantee minimum sequential write speed for 4K video or continuous sensor logging. A1 qualification accelerates Android app load times on compatible devices.

Questions about this item

How do I install the microSD card and SD adapter in my device, and what is the common mistake to avoid?

Insert the 16GB microSD card into the included SD adapter with the label facing up, then push the adapter into the full-size SD slot until it clicks. The common mistake is inserting the microSD card upside down in the adapter, which prevents the contacts from aligning.

What maintenance or replacement will this card need over its lifespan?

The card is rated for 30K program/erase cycles and 1920 TBW total bytes written. Use the optional health monitoring tool to track remaining endurance; when the tool reports the card nearing its write limit, replace it to avoid data loss.

What is the first limit I will hit under sustained write workloads?

The sequential write speed is capped at 100 MB/s. Under continuous recording or logging, the controller will throttle to this rate, making write throughput the first bottleneck before temperature or endurance limits are reached.
