eMMC vs eMCP: storage and RAM explained

When checking a mobile motherboard, the chip type helps you understand what the result describes. Storage and RAM are different values; do not add them together.

eMMC: storage

In MIC's identification results, eMMC refers to a storage chip. A storage-only result should not be treated as a measurement of the phone's RAM.

eMCP: a combined package

An eMCP package combines RAM and storage in one chip package. MIC can display both values when the code is supported and the information is available.

A practical example

For KMDP6001DA, the example confirmed by MIC's developer is 64 GB storage and 4 GB RAM. These are separate capacities, not a single 68 GB figure.

Check the whole marking

Enter the code printed on the chip into the app. If the marking is unclear or the result seems inconsistent, recheck it and use MIC's wrong-code reporting option. Verify important information before a trade.
